  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • jonnyhern Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

    @JanetMcwee I haven't had a TV aerial for about 20 years. No longer have a Sky box so I watch Freesat via TV ( similar to Freeview) and stream everything else, catchup, iplayers, netflix etc via internet although I do subscribe to NOW TV which is a Sky streaming service.

  • ManfacilityW Manfacility Metal Works (@ManfacilityW) reported

    Smokey and the bandit 3 just started on paramount network on freeview. Only ever seen it once..

  • will_wren Will Wren (@will_wren) reported

    @Crystalangeles2 @MoriartyProfJ3 If you abolish the TV licence you close down Freeview, 4G & 5G - TV licence also pays for that

  • SewDaft Mando (@SewDaft) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam No dish on the house. Elderly lady just wants to watch tv and wants more channels than freeview. So is this possible? Can she have sat tv without a broadband service at the property? Have you got a sales team I can talk to? would be much easier but can't find phone # on website.

  • raytor Ray #indyref2 (@raytor) reported

    @weblivz Haven't renewed subscription, must find new stuff, being stuck with freeview is awful.

  • geoffreytucker1 Geoff Tucker (@geoffreytucker1) reported

    @englandcricket IS it going to be broadcast in England as the test match was? I can't see it in the Freeview listings(?). Or is it merely another narrow cast to some subscription service or other?

  • TheVietGwent GJPowell (@TheVietGwent) reported

    @YoungmanMj @Owenins That's way beyond my technical expertise, and I would expect large swathes of England can pick-up S4C via Freeview anyway? S4C would be paying for broadcasting in Wales in any event, if they could afford it, and it's the spill over that would be the problem?

  • ronniet240 Ronnie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 should🚶🏻‍♂️🚶🏻‍♂️🇬🇧 (@ronniet240) reported

    I’m looking to see what original programs are on TV as it’s Saturday and what do we have on all these FreeView channels well let’s just forget BBC as it’s same-old-same-old. BBC2 1980 T/Pops? Any & Dec same old format you can bet on it! Then The New Voice old format..Crap!!

  • oliver_shergold 🅂🄷🄾🅃 🄱🅈 🄱🄾🅃🄷 🅂🄸🄳🄴🅂 (@oliver_shergold) reported

    @Johnnypapa64 @NakedAirplane They should put shows like this on Freeview to counteract all the reality TV crap that's on there day in day out.

  • andymacmichael Andy MacMichael (@andymacmichael) reported

    @Coldwar_Steve A cultural septic tank, TV turned dystopian ****-fest available on freeview channel 666.
