Default is BBC weather forecast video loop on freesat?

Is the BBC weather forecast video loop available on freesat?

Using my old sky box with a “freesat from sky” card the video forecast
is available from text page 400 but my Panasonic Freesat TV doesn’t have
that option.

Not yet available on Freesat.
Freesat uses a different "language" for interactive, and the BBC haven't
finished converting the multiscreen yet.
I think they had a basic version working for the Rugby, but it is not
finished.

You'll just have to wait up to 30 minutes for the forecast on BBC News
channel (approx 28, 58 mins past every hour)

HTH,
Mike
