    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @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 😂

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

    @DerSchwarzBaron @U_didnt_saythat Yeah think that's the problem. Because GAA sold rights to Sky, sky block it on the RTE channel. Not sure if you can watch it on Freeview or not. But this is what happens when sports do big TV deals.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    With a rising British star it's important her finals are accessible free to air. Eurosport may use Quest for them, but they're likely to lose their HD channel soon thanks to slow and regressive progress on switching Freeview to HD.

  • JasonAtDavid Jason Stone (@JasonAtDavid) reported

    @FollowerAndy0 @jimwaterson Yes but won't piping it through Sky, Freeview etc massively mitigate the risk of it breaking down?

  • JohnMac87014501 John Macdonald (@JohnMac87014501) reported

    @FreeviewTV good evening freeview I recently retuned and manage to get the missing channels added but now we can get no information and the time is stuck on the 7th Sept. Nothing but problems with this toshiba tv. Your help will be much appreciated.

  • stuart10006 Stuart Harrison (@stuart10006) reported

    @annafriel Just a heads up that a repeat showing of the series "Broken" starts tonight at 9.20 pm on Channel 20 (Drama) on Freeview in the UK. That's all.

  • CrazySparky Pete (@CrazySparky) reported

    @minxyme72 Freesat / Freeview / Amazon Prime and a subscription to some French channels for Ella ( which I never watch )

  • BlakeAntcliff Blake Antcliff (@BlakeAntcliff) reported

    @BBCNews Not just villagers, occasionally try my TV and still can't get a signal (have freesat so not that much of an issue) My Dad has BT Youview box that he barely knows how to use and no Freeview channels at all.

  • chrisalfw Chris Williams (@chrisalfw) reported

    @joti261 @Nigel_Farage @GBNEWS STUPID!! GB News is not a satellite channel; it is free to air on Freeview.

    @syd_rochelle Ok, I see you asked this 8 years ago, and have almost certainly found out since then but I can't help responding... the answer is yes, yes they did! And it's now back on TV, on Freeview, on 'Forces TV'. Enjoy!

    @RealFibb @marcwatson7 Still got this Sky in the house never updated still the same. Same freeview box from 2001.
