@Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

@mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

Wow #biggamenight is awful! A poor attempt by @channel5_tv to recreate something similar to @SoccerAM only for the NFl. Still, good to have games on Freeview though

@Riley_Gaines_ No. It gets shouted about constantly and has disproportionate coverage of those with those opinions across major outlets. MPs with those opinions have their own TV and radio shows on Freeview with very little governance. You're talking bollocks. Stop ****-stirring.

Viewers are advised to check their devices and retune as necessary to continue accessing available channels.

@mikestanford01 @RoslynByfield @BBCr4today On the Radio, BBC World Service is the best bet. ALL the other channels are for entertainment. Now Al Jazeera is not on Freeview the only option is 'Sky News' ... warts and all. I #mute adverts.
