    @R59V8 I don't know what we pay, so I don't know how good a deal we get. But at least with Freeview you are close enough to the big mast to get no issues. Up here it is terrible - The slightest tropo and it's unwatchable

    Why is @TVNZ making it harder for kiwis to access their content? Why split your on demand content from freeview and require people to have yet another app and login? Are you planning on charging for it? Or do you just enjoy causing inconvenience? @TVNZondemand

    @ant_hkuk @GBNEWS Are you with the #Freeview? They have issues all the time don't they? Some people are not getting #GBNews broadcast to them at all, confirmed by @FreeviewAdvice. And I'm sure they dealt with that a few days back you know, the synching issues. What show did you last notice it on?.

    Blimey Sat night TV is dire when you only have Freeview channels. Tried watching #coyoteugly. What a pile of crap! Gonna go watch paint dry.

    @ChairmanMoet I've never checked but how do you watch GB news ? Is it online ? Freeview?

  • Statto_74 Andy Rockall (@Statto_74) reported

    I only have Freeview HD but cannot believe the difference in clarity. Have chosen to watch Sweden v Poland which is on ITV 4 in SD it’s crap compared to ITV HD.

    @adamsherwin10 @SimonMcCoyTV @theipaper If GB news thinks Freeview viewers are not worth HD I hope they fail.

    @BBC6Music i along with several other broadcast engineers currently shouting at our radio that there are still radio transmissions. DAB is transmitted as an RF signal. As is DVB-T - Freeview telly. It’s not all online or satellite!
