@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

@FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

@Wheely73 @bendirs1 Of course...if you have sky or wherever. I read somewhere that the majority of homes in UK don’t even have freeview, never mind sky/cable. What about those folks?

@lennylaw When you have 6 live TV channels available to all on Freeview, and you show the same thing on 5 channels, and close down the sixth, that's just bollocks.

@jimwaterson At least iPlayer is broadcast via an App on my smart TV therefore gets broadcast as HD. Freeview cannot managed HD on any more than 5 channels and BBC4 ain't one of them. SD is visually poor in big flatscreens

@BrixtonBobbyBob @mandapen Yes. Channel 4 or any of the other Freeview channels people never bother watching. Yes , it sucks that favourite shows were cancelled for the night but folk who say there was nothing else on TV are employing hyperbole.

@andyjhpool @sha8erpr00f @mandapen Not that I'm a fan of the hyperbolic coverage , but almost everyone has either SKY or Freeview , both of which have HUNDREDS of other channels available. But now I can't get grandad off babe station. Damn you BBC !

@SteelDalek1 And then close down BBC4 to stop you watching that instead! Have they forgotten most people have Freeview, Sky or Virgin to find other programmes on???
