    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @louisebentley10 I've never seen and I missed it if it came up on Freeview. It never seems to air on Freeview now. I don't subscribe to paid services/streaming. I wish whatever channel aired it would show it again.

  • CllrGaryMalcolm Cllr Gary Malcolm 🔶️🌈 (@CllrGaryMalcolm) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Food Network (channel 42) has mysteriously disappeared from my TV. Tried retuning and still won't reappear. Is this a Freeview issue/ do I just have to be patient and wait? Thank you.

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @RantyHighwayman Channel 5 likes spreading hate & misinformation & that **** show is allowed to continue when Wright left. Why I no longer watch Ch5 & removed from my Freeview box after their **** attack on cycling. #ScourgeOfTheTvChannels

  • Jon_oh_oh_7 Jonathan (@Jon_oh_oh_7) reported

    Is it multitoom compatible? What happens when cancel subscription? The tv wont have built in freeview so will b redundant @SkyHelpTeam #skyglass

  • CooroSnowFox 🦊 Auro D. Hikoshi 🦊 (@CooroSnowFox) reported

    @deathbyjulmust I never really cared and they were always on the the channel before freeview was a thing.

  • stephengetty6 stephen getty (@stephengetty6) reported

    Watching Porridge on Freeview classic 70’s BBC comedy brilliantly funny and clever comedy . Such a difference to all the dumbed down American television served up on Netflix these days

  • ChamarelDesigns Chamarel Designs (@ChamarelDesigns) reported

    @greatmoviesuk I’ve been watching GreatMovies Christmas since it launched for this year and it’s just disappeared mid-movie this evening. It returned but with a split screen. Unplugged tv & still had the issue so I auto retuned & now channels 51 AND 49 don’t exist on my freeview!

  • TEOL85 The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported

    @SkyUK Freeview Play should get Sky Play App with Sky Arts, Challenge, Pick and News the Freeview channels free of charge with the option to further login with your forum password and put your viewing card number in. That converts existing smart TVs into a Sky Glass TV as well.

    @GemSiobhan @spectator @afneil You can pick up a 1TB BT freeview+ box on eBay for about £69. No subscriptions. For me it's buying a freeview+ box was a small price to pay to never have to watch adverts.
