  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

  • Toffeewolfie Philip whitehurst (@Toffeewolfie) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

    The RT chanell just became unavailable on my freeview set. If it didn't come back on air I'll cancel my TV license.

  • alistaircoleman Alistair Coleman (@alistaircoleman) reported

    RT is still on Freeview as its signal comes from elsewhere, but I really wouldn't bother. (thanks @tweetSP0RT)

  • HooliganFlaz Christian ❄ (@HooliganFlaz) reported

    @georgegalloway Not working on Freeview...was couple of hours ago.

  • scottygb Scott Bryan (@scottygb) reported

    @FloraCarmichael @alistaircoleman yep - but Freeview’s signal comes from elsewhere. They pulled the plug too.

  • sedition3 Adrianne Sebastian-Scott (@sedition3) reported

    @FranS199 I sent a complaint to Freeview. I hope other people do too.

  • DJMidarezaki DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇭🇰🇹🇼 (@DJMidarezaki) reported

    @FredBasset9 @NadineDorries In WWII German broadcasts weren't being emitted by UK-based transmitters. Please don't tell me the RT Freeview signal you receive is coming from Moscow. It's coming from your local transmitter (in my case, Hannington).

  • LaBloggeuse Dr Devra Kay (@LaBloggeuse) reported

    @RolandCPowell @droyls It was going strong on UK Freeview until middle of this pm. Then a one-line message appeared: This service is currently not available. They had been criticizing the French ban just before that. Thanks for the info.

  • Toto92733149 Toto (@Toto92733149) reported

    @geof_hughes RT now down on uk freeview

  • alistaircoleman Alistair Coleman (@alistaircoleman) reported

    Here's the situation: RT is OFF on Sky RT is ON Freeview in HD only (ch113) but off on SD (ch 234) Your mileage may vary depending on your service provider.

  • htwcentral Historical Television Website (@htwcentral) reported

    @TesTVWhirl RT HD has/had supposedly moved to a much higher channel number hence not gone altogether (yet?) since losing its SD service but that and the Freeview service could disappear at some point.
