    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

    All those **** channels on Freeview and it's BBC News HD that gets the chop 🤔

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    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 😂

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

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

  • D_Hollingsworth Dan Hollingsworth (@D_Hollingsworth) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    When did BBC4 HD. Leave Freeview? What a load of ****, missed a chunk of #TOTP and joining it late with Michael ruddy Jackson.

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

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

  • 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.

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • denj0908 Nettie 🇬🇧 (@denj0908) reported

    @BermondseySE16 @AlStewartOBE @GBNEWS Try removing your aerial from your TV, returned without the aerial, then put aerial back in and retune again. See if that works. If not, go on freeview website for extra help.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital When I tried the TV, nothing, it was worst than before, when freeview contacted me, I told them its worst than before, and wanted to know who contacted them. They hung up. I know about the issues, I have a contractor who lives opposite,
