Freeview Outage in York, England

It's easy to be critical of ITV Racing, as they have no freeview competition, but does that mean we should keep quiet about how poor and shallow it is? Analysis is almost zero and they cram in too many races. The golden years of the BBC and C4 are memories. But bloody good ones!

@marktewk I saw that. But the likelihood that everyone will have fast broadband in 6 yrs time is unlikely. Also if people can't afford just over £12/month for a TV licence how the hell will they afford broadband connection & a subscription fee. Freeview is the way the poor can watch TV.

The endlessly repeated #peloton ad on the Freeview channels is the most irritating 30 seconds I've ever encountered. It is driving me crazy and I will never, ever buy one of those damn things.

@Frankieboyfran1 @LochSmall Channel 81 on your freeview. Its the worst film youll see for a long time

@christigoesloco @a516digital Not a problem on other platforms of course, and not a problem on the freeview fallback system, but a problem for older tv and box users.

@christigoesloco @a516digital Yes i know they time share, but the issue costriants are with freeview, but those with freeview should be ok on the fallback system, the point im trying to solve is a way to equal out things so everyone has some sort of service,

@jennyrickson Get rid of any sky box, Freeview, Aerial cable, sat cable and cancel your DD. You can go on their website and do the declaration thing. Will stop them sending Capita thugs to harass you for two years, I think. We just use an Amazon firestick with a Netflix and prime sub.

@ChrisBrownSport @winklepin @BBCiPlayer I am watching on Freeview but my signal is very off and on. The iPlayer much better as goes through my WiFi . Grrrrr annoying

@RaymondSnoddy @EvansTheCrime Government have admitted that current free-to-air technology cannot support a subscription service, which requires some form of encryption & password to work. The cost of retrofitting Freeview and every TV in the land would be massive - who will pay?

@TalkingPicsTV I really miss Talking Pictures channel, it was brilliant for my bedbound or less stimulated input days...With you from the start, and now you're gone..(and never called me mother!)Ever since the last update of my freeview ,wherefore art thou 😢?

@_emma__mc Now you got me , I don't know why , but I can't do Casualty. Too much drama. But #Holby is a weekly never miss. But Jac Naylor now gone so I am fuming. Not paying my TV fee now. Classic Holby is on Freeview channel 20 "Drama" occasionally. Have fun.
