    @SkyNews why does the sound on your Freeview Sky News studio sound so bad? The presenter sounds like she is talking through a sock!

    @BlckCatBlckSky Yeah, I forgot that’s what Americans call it. We definitely have it but people just call it tv. To be honest since the digital change over most people call it freeview which is the service.

    @virginmedia I just wish you would allow people to upgrade TV packages via the website, no issues with your other services, but can never get through to speak to someone, so spent the holidays with freeview, since I couldn’t upgrade via web

    @SpammyFritter My initial thought was how very tacky.... But ive never been one for crackers at the table. Got me back on side with the freeview, that was a nice festive touch.

  • MrPig16170188 Mr_Piglet (@MrPig16170188) reported

    The episode of World At War detailing the treatment of Jewish people is not on channel 26 Freeview. I think everyone should watch it once. Awful. Harrowing.

    @safewordthe2nd If you don't agree with bbc persian stance you are within your rights to stop paying TV licence (If you're in UK). As long as you don't watch LIVE TV through freeview or use BBC Iplayer you can #DefundTheBBC. You are not breaking the law. Cancel your licence.

    @SkyNews why does sky news sound so bad on Freeview today? The presenter sounds like she is talking for a sock!

    I'm not a materialistic person. Got my cream liqueur, got Devil Wears Prada on Freeview (why pay for TV when it's free?!) a roof over my head and the heating on. That is far far greater than many have or will have. Will never understand folks who need the best of the best.
