  • darrksquid Kate🇪🇺 (@darrksquid) reported from Bonnyrigg, Scotland

    Ok, Peanut Gallery, what is a decent news/current events show available on Freeview that I can watch for 15 minutes in the morning before work with my cereal? I can't do Piers Morgan, and BBC Breakfast IS pretty poor, I'll admit.

    From June the 1st Freeview is switching off Now the cost of Living Now is the time to cancel your TV licence

  • viridispicus _insert witticism here_ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@viridispicus) reported

    @BootstrapCook It depends on signal strength, direction to transmitter, and what's in the way. Digital signals (such as Freeview) are broadly binary: the TV understands enough, you have a picture - or nothing. Amplifiers exist, but they amplify noise as much as signal, so beware promises.

  • BradMacpherson5 Brad Macpherson (@BradMacpherson5) reported

    @BootstrapCook If the TV's relatively new it should have a built-in Freeview tuner. The aerial might be more of a problem though depending on how good a signal you get - digital's more sensitive than analogue, a poor signal makes it unwatchable rather than just snowy.

  • klothklicker Dee 💉💉💉🇺🇦 (@klothklicker) reported

    @APndrgrst What I like to watch is available free to air, & I don't know where else to find it. This year I tried the free apple TV sub that came with my tablet. Everything was pay per view with a monthly fee as well. I quit! I listen to the radio on Freeview too: no reception issues.

  • gf1874 An individual polo mint. (@gf1874) reported

    @RossMcCaff If internationals can’t be ring-fenced for freeview, surely to **** it can at least be required to be shown on actual television instead of some shite streaming thing.

  • nisbetbryce Nisbet Bryce (@nisbetbryce) reported

    @BootstrapCook Sometimes. The cabling should work fine so long as the box and your TV have an HDMI port. Problem might be whether the Freeview signal in your area is strong enough to be picked up by a small aerial.

  • Brazenvamp Hannah #reclaimthestreets (@Brazenvamp) reported

    @BootstrapCook @_SarahAlice_ Can you drill through the floor and feed it through? Anyway I used to use a smart TV to watch freeview with no issues x

  • brundellfilimou Mike Benjamin (@brundellfilimou) reported

    @LeapfrogMark @TalkTV @iancollinsuk Most of the BBC is not suitable for a subs service, for example, no UK news programme is subscription only (even sky is on freeview) and technically it is not possible for radio stations. An advertising and sponsorship is more realistic but other media outlets will not like it

  • badmachinery John Allison 🕴 (@badmachinery) reported

    @joelist This is very interesting. PBS have a UK Freeview channel so you'd think they could just show it there if they really wanted to, but they don't (and never have) owned the rights. I read that a lot of Sesame Street's income was from DVDs, and that has now vanished.
