  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.

  The government is considering the future of television distribution, which could affect the prospects of the digital terrestrial platform that is marketed at Freeview. and the public service broadcasters that fund it, wants to switch if off by 2034.

  @EmmerdaleInside There is no excuse not to put football or any other sport on ITV 3 or 4 as everyone who watches TV will have digital TV ( Freeview) as the analog signal got turned off years ago and them channels are free to all ( as long as they pay the TV Tax)

It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.

  @4doorsmorepaws ah that makes sense! never looked into whether freesat got more channels than freeview but i'm assuming it was probably just a signal thing more than anything else lol that sucks 😭 I only remember having to that with analog tv for a while and then I guess we got our aerial fixed

  @DanielJHannan Now explain how you make BROADCAST TELEVISION a subscription service without a technology change on the scale of the move to freeview.

  Scrolling the freeview channels this past weekend a familiar movie title popped up, Fever Pitch. "Uh, a shame it's the stupid Jimmy Fal... Oh, wait, is that Mark Strong??" It was!

  @jamzefish @BBCNews Ok, I get that you're talking about unencrypted satellite signals, but these can be controlled. Everyone will have to login to iPlayer for BBC content with some programs requiring a paid subscription. Freeview channels should remain viewable without need for a TV licence.

  @JoshCF_ They're a joke now, two years ago the deal was £45 with basic freeview and Sky Q and now it's £63. They've also ended customer support on here and UK based customer calls. The app regularly messes up now, doesn't recognise you've paid and you end up getting charged again 😑
