    @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 😂

  • greenkingdog steve green (@greenkingdog) reported

    bad atmospherics in London are causing a lot of Freeview channels to mess up BBC London, but because I am high up I can pick up BBC south and the reception is so much better

    @maryfordneal You don't need a box for Netflix. Freeview connection (via aerial) normally comes set up in the TV. Some TVs do Freesat instead, and they get the signal from a dish. You don't need to subscribe to anything to get Freesat or Freeview. 'Catchup' of main channels free via apps on TV

    @SkyHelpTeam @praburamswamy So does this tv have built in Freeview digital via RF so you can watch it if you cancel subscription

  • LibbyKerensky Libby Hudson (@LibbyKerensky) reported

    @SianJasper I only do Freeview but it’s interesting what’s shown and what isn’t. I have never seen Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing. I recently watched a documentary on Black Hollywood - never even heard of half of the films.

    London's mayor Sadiq Khan wants the city to be net zero by 2030. So are cities part of the solution to climate change? Our guests @JenIrisAllan and @mohadow will be debating this on tonight's #DailyClimateShow. 🕡 6:30pm 📺 Sky 501/Freeview 233

    @callaghansstuff @SimmsMelanie My mother never had any issues with remotes, DVD players, freeview boxes or mobiles. Just saying.

  • finchiniho John Finch (@finchiniho) reported

    @greatmoviesuk I've rescanned my Freeview box and my Freeview TV, but I can't get the Christmas channel, I'm in Kent, please help as I want my Christmas movie fix!

  • MrWheeliebin Mike Edie (@MrWheeliebin) reported

    What has happened to Film4 on FreeView? Garbage low bit rate video compression. Everything looks like Lego.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    The sat backup combines Freeview multiplex BBC-A and BBC-B, without the full selection of BBC English Regions, so relays that fall back on satback may offer 'the wrong local news' until normal service returns. It's also very popular in Spain for reasons I won't go in to here...
