People are just realising their TV has loads of hidden free channels – how to unlock them | The Sun
EVERYONE is looking to save money at the moment and your TV could be a good place to start.
Rather than paying for subscriptions like Netflix there are actually hidden TV channels some people don't even realise existed – all for free.
They are channels much like BBC One and ITV1 with a schedule except for one big difference.
These channels are all internet based.
The good thing about them is most don't even require you to sign up as they're totally free.
Of course, they're supported by adverts to keep them this way.
