  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    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.

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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.

    @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…

    @PaulM30033923 @Radioheady2021 @NadineDorries Guess you don’t watch a single BBC televison show, radio programme, or BBC funded film or read any BBC website or make use of the Freeview transmitter network?

  • chrisbardell Chris Bardell (@chrisbardell) reported

    @Turnip_Of_Doom @JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Yep, ITV/C4/C5 will never be able to pay for the entire running cost of Freeview. So it’ll close and they’ll go subscription-only.

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @thenoikz @NadineDorries The problem is the services rhe provide that the disabled would have nothing without, the educational resources schools wouldn’t have, the fact that Freeview transmitters wouldn’t be maintained and the lack of Welsh/Gaelic language services. All “not your problem” though, eh?

  • outofoffice20 **** Tingler🙈🙉🙊 (@outofoffice20) reported

    @jamesdeeganMC @BBC Agreed. To add insult to this we keep losing the digital signal on a regular basis on freeview so keep missing out on watching programmes.

  • timrollpickerin Tim Roll-Pickering (@timrollpickerin) reported

    @Mark0Connell @Paul_Burgin Here's a suggestion that will make the @BBC more popular here: Sort out the Freeview signal so it's watchable in hot weather. Here in London the signal is terrible to non existent at the height of summer. Alternatively make the BBC issue refunds for services not delivered.

  • IanTrem Ian Trembirth (@IanTrem) reported

    @peacekpr79 @davidschneider The BBC also pays for the Freeview network of transmitters, the way a lot of viewers still get their TV signal.

  • JustMark33 The World According To Mark (@JustMark33) reported

    @steventgray @GaryLineker The examples your using are poor…ITV and C4 are freeview channels and don’t cost you a penny to watch so in what way do you have to pay for that?

  • JebSuspended Jeb The Sociopath Bush (@JebSuspended) reported

    @ShineyFx If you even use Freeview ever. You also use it. You do use something it pays for Now that doesn’t equate to you should pay for it. Ofc not, choice is choice But like you do and it will be the case for streaming service eventually

  • chrisbardell Chris Bardell (@chrisbardell) reported

    @JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Explain how subscription service will work with Freeview.

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @wilsonfromnorth @NadineDorries What’s that got to do with educational resources every school/college use, maintaining Freeview transmitters so the elderly/poor have access to TV, having programming that is made for the disabled community? These things aren’t made by anyone else because they’re not profitable.
