Do you want to get an update on the weather when you want?

Well, you can - and you can choose whether you do so in video or text by using the BBC Red Button service on your digital television.

Whether you have Sky TV, Virgin Media or Freeview, you can catch up with the the latest weather video, maps and warnings often using the same page numbers as the current Ceefax service.

To receive these services, simply press the RED button on your handset.

Easy to use
