    @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.

    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 😂

    @GBNEWS I don’t know if it’s been mentioned but I watched on Freeview last night and often the sound was out of synch when a person was talking. The 9:00pm show was worst hit. It may have been teething troubles & ok on other platforms. I’ll check again later to see how it looks.

  • LynneGordonNI Lynne Gordon (@LynneGordonNI) reported

    I’m ok with this so far, it’s giving the public a bit of a say, which is good for me. Yes there will be teething problems, channel 236 on freeview have a gander. #GBNews

    @GBNEWS The set is way too dark, sound needs improving. The picture on Freeview C.236 is awful. Will still watch though, anything but BBC and GMB.

  • iamyogmis yogesh mistry (@iamyogmis) reported

    @GBNEWS Watching on Freeview..aweful picture quality and sound.. doesn't look professional at all... hopefully teething problems but if it doesn't improve people won't bother.

    @anthonyfroberts @Linda36758099 My Freeview reception is crap so the channel keeps cutting out.

  • eufactsexplain Centre Right Democrat (@eufactsexplain) reported

    @GBNEWS @afneil Not available on Freeview in South Glos: “No signal or signal too weak” message given

  • Gordon92176321 Gordon (@Gordon92176321) reported

    @GBNEWS I live on the island of Islay off the west coast of Scotland. I wish to view GB news on my TV. My freeview signal is poor so channel 236 is not available. I do not have Sky as I generally stream my TV viewing via broadband. How can I get GB news on my TV?

  • jwt_jack JWT (@jwt_jack) reported

    @KEdge23 My problem is how the hell do I watch it. I don't have freeview!

  • jwripple John Woodman (@jwripple) reported

    @JulietJeater Send it back for a refund and look at TVs with a Freeview Player installed. Not sure if this is down to BBC or Apple - had to speak with various Apple people around the globe before I ended up with an Irish one who understood the problem.

    @reece_dinsdale I tuned on last night, saw Dan wootton and turned back off. Watching on freeview and it looked terrible with what looks like rubbish imaged backdrops too
