Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

@TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

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 😂

@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

@Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

@GBPolitcs @Telegraph The new internet version of Freeview - Freely... I think it asks you to sign in if you want to watch ITV or Channel 5. So if that's the future direction of TV then if you didn't want BBC you could just not sign in. If you do want it you sign in and pay the licence for a year?

@anon_opin I like the reruns of things like Minder and Bergerac on Freeview, but I don't bother with anything else because it's shite. Too many stupid gameshows and tedious reality TV doesn't help.

Freeview channel 205 POP linear channel and Freeview channel 208 POP Player will closes on Monday 1st December 2025 Closure of Pop Channel on Freeview Key Details Date of Closure: The Pop channel will cease broadcasting on Freeview on December 1, 2025. Affected Channels: Both Pop and Tiny Pop will no longer be available on Freeview, Sky, or Virgin Media. Reason for Closure: The decision is due to a significant decline in viewership and commercial viability in the children's TV market. Transition to Streaming New Format: After the closure, Pop will transition to a streaming-only service on Freeview. This means viewers will need an internet-connected device to access the content. FAST Channels: Pop will continue to be available through Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (FAST) platforms, allowing access to its content online. Remaining Options Other Free Channels: After the closure, the main free-to-air options for children's programming will be limited to BBC, CBBC, CBeebies, and Channel 5's Milkshake!. This marks the end of over two decades of broadcasting for the Pop channels, which have been a staple in children's television in the UK.
