  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

    @calexico65 Where I am there was always a poor signal back in the day. I remember my dad had a 500ft high aerial nailed to the side of the house at one point. Now it’s on Freeview but tbh I never watch it. In my defence I rarely watch NI News either.

  • PeterPendlebur6 Peter Pendlebury (@PeterPendlebur6) reported

    I have tried a few times to get GB news on my television up here in Perth Scotland but been unable successful. I have freeview and I believe it is channel 236 I also have a smart TV and digital aerial so that shouldn't be an issue ,has anyone else been having the same issue ?

  • GarethP84429885 Gareth Price (@GarethP84429885) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @CWiddowfield_61 Hey Freeview I got a indoor Ariel but can't get any hd channels and I'm getting rather annoyed by how many I can get here in Barry ,vale of Glamorgan it's crap

  • Carti_Mandua LadyAnniSpice... #IStandWithIsrael 🔯🕎✡️🇮🇱 (@Carti_Mandua) reported

    been listening to @GBNEWS on the app on my phone and the sound was perfect ..... up now and listening on the TV Freeview 236 and the sound is terrible. Whats going on . @GBNEWS ??

  • Statto_74 Andy Rockall (@Statto_74) reported

    I only have Freeview HD but cannot believe the difference in clarity. Have chosen to watch Sweden v Poland which is on ITV 4 in SD it’s crap compared to ITV HD.

  • DavidMorton359 David Morton (@DavidMorton359) reported

    @ChairmanMoet I've never checked but how do you watch GB news ? Is it online ? Freeview?

  • DearPerdita Dear Perdita (@DearPerdita) reported

    @GBNEWS The freeview signal isn’t strong enough in our area, will you be getting a firestick app so it can be watched it that way?
