There is no didgital signal here only analogue. 

If your tv is from U.K. (Didgital) it will only work with satellite or online boxs.......

There is a digital signal, all local channels are on digital now but you need to get a TDT box to plug into first then plug that to the tv. The TDT boxes are under 30 euro and can be purchased in pretty much any store that has a TV and audio section.

Go into the TV menu/source. and try changing from analogue to digital and see if this helps. If you live in a flat, it could be shut off.

Sorry not sure what you mean

Is this on the tv? 

Do I use the remote?

Or there is something outside my flat front door they re wires up 

before the electrics were passed but the panel is cellotapes down

Am I over complicating this?

Thanks

There should be a button on the remote,"SOURCE"(possibly "MENU") press the button and see what comes up on thEescreen. Choose DTV for digital. ATV for analogue. See if you can get a picture.

If it is disconnected at the street, I'm not sure what to do, but you could enquire with one of your neighbours, they may know. Sorry I can't help more.
