    @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.

  • 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 😂

  • ITVChannelTV ITV Channel News (@ITVChannelTV) reported

    @SollyIan @ITV ITV was recently granted an Ofcom licence which would allow ITV1 to broadcast in HD in the Channel Islands, however, there is currently insufficient Freeview/satellite capacity to provide the service in addition to other channels. We are aware of the issue and are working to fix.

    Staying in a holiday cottage with BT TV. Not sure why anyone bothers to pay for this service. Far less decent choice than Freeview and seems to have nothing but back to back ancient repeats.

  • NZTVupdate Aotearoa/New Zealand TV Update (@NZTVupdate) reported

    @DrRocke @FreeviewNZ @Primetv_NZ All we have to go on is this statement "You can look forward to more new channels in the year ahead too". Maybe Discovery is bringing it's Food Network to Freeview but who knows at this point.

    Anyone else experiencing poor Freeview reception on some channels this morning? Probably something to do with atmospheric conditions. Sporadic E?

    @FreeviewAdvice I live in LE11 1SL Loughborough, Freeview channels including all HD channels worked perfectly last night, and today nothing, no signal, won’t even pick up hd channels or half the normal channels?? What’s going on???

  • macmeonly buggrit (@macmeonly) reported

    @RupertLowe10 Why a subscription service? All the channels on Freeview manage.

  • acarvalhoramos André Carvalho Ramos (@acarvalhoramos) reported

    @9edroPires @pqp_f1 If you watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat), you need to be covered by a TV Licence. 1/2
