Around 4,000 homes across the south east of Jersey were left without ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 after a fault with a television transmitter in St Helier.

The channels - including the likes of Channel Television, ITV2 and E4 - fell off air on Freeview overnight on Thursday 27 October.

The problem was fixed and all the channels were back on air shortly before 6pm.

Viewers in the north of the island, and those watching on Sky or Freesat were not affected.
