    If we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

  • hurricanehorton Michael Horton (@hurricanehorton) reported

    @AndyJ147 @q_bettor I think it's a different audience. BBC aim itself at a more casual fan, Eurosport at somebody who is going to be watching all year round. I do sometimes put the BBC coverage on when it's on though, just to support snooker on Freeview telly. And for a bit of variety.

    @RTUKnews I'm probably slow here, but what happened to the news on Freeview? (RT international is on as ever) But RT UK would be on from 3pm - but, only realised, not seen it on in a while. 🤔

    Hehe.. I have worked out a way to get in & out of the ULEZ undetected. Gonna go scope it out in a bit. Trouble is, if it fails I'll have to pay TFL twelve quid & I won't know if it works for three days... Beats sitting in watching freeview, eh?

    @FreeviewAdvice Cont pt2 - guides never had both London & local (BBC & ITV) this only started about 10 days ago when my BTYOUVIEW box had an update. BT say Freeview are responsible.
