  @bbcquestiontime @BBCSounds @BBCiPlayer There is the problem. They shouldn't be trying to govern us. They are there to Administer services of the state for the benefit of the population instead of themselves or their globalist masters

  @BBCSportScot @BBCScotland @BBCiPlayer What a poor game, Ross County proving they are worst team in the division and Colin Steven proving he is worst ref in Scotland.

  @bbcquestiontime @BBCiPlayer @BBCNews What a terrible waste of electricity. How much did this consume?

  @Giantdaz72 @1968Tv @BBCiPlayer A lot of the attraction of the old stuff is listening to Coleman/Motson/Davies commentating down a crackly phone line. Those recently re-voiced commentaries are terrible.

  @BBCSport @BBCiPlayer This afternoon's commentators on Si Jiahui v Hossein Vafaei are awful. Snooker is an interesting game. This pair are better off on mute

  @NordVPN I used to use you, but about a year ago your system stopped working with bbciplayer. Is this still an issue or did you fix it? I ask as my renewal is up again

  @bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer As usual ,characters looking at a problem the wrong way. Penny worried about Gina having to move out while surely Vinny in his 30s with money etc should have his own place that they can move to ?

  @bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer What was that poor attempt fire effect at the end of tonight’s episode? That CGI fire was absolutely terrible.

  @bbclaurak @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer I think the public are no longer accepting these graceless PR-coached attempts to rehabilitate people's careers. Schofield's didn't work. Huw Edwards' one isn't working. And now Sturgeon's is only going to raise people's hackles even further. Have a bit of dignity, Nicola, and just go off and live a quiet life.

  @dnmcg @BBCiPlayer Hi! Spotted a UI bug on Red Dwarf. The page says "Available until Sat", but clicking the "?" help icon next to it just gives an "Oops, something went wrong" error page. Just flagging the broken link/incorrect countdown for your tech team!

  The worst thing about watching the World Cup on catch-up is how long it takes them to upload the matches @ITVX @BBCiPlayer

  @bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer I predict both will vomit when they realise what they've done, but Patrick did say to Oscar in the flashforward that he was with a Truman now, so unless he and Jasmine somehow manage to reconcile, maybe this pair manages to work it out?

  @bbcquestiontime @BBCSounds @BBCiPlayer Probably the worst Question Time I’ve ever seen. Total trash 🧐

  @bbcquestiontime @BBCiPlayer @BBCNews You just failed to call out the real problem with AI while committing the same problem yourselves stealing intellectual property.

  @ekaurpokhran @RoyalFamily @BBCiPlayer Low tier bait. You have many worse problems. At least sort the litter out. Anyway, I'm not spending my Friday evening arguing with someone in India, have a good day. HBD to Sir David.
