    I will never have normal freeview tv

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

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

  • 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 😂

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • 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.

  • LwtEmmaBird Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported

    @A_M_Seed Don't have TV on at the moment because the Freeview signal is shot (high pressure). Otherwise they could have had CBeebies.

  • amicabentley_ Amica Bentley 🔞 (@amicabentley_) reported

    @AdultWorkcom **** the **** out of freeview 😳

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    It only seems like Yesterday that UK History began on the Freeview platform, with UK Bright Ideas running from 6am - 6pm showing content from UK Style, UK Food and UK Gardens. Then, lots of changes to the @UKTV network of channels.

  • LwtEmmaBird Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported

    Hi @JenBartram 1031mBar is high pressure, is it not? Just been told that my Freeview signal can't be being affected by high pressure because they've not had any high pressure warnings... 🤯

  • 4Viewers 4Viewers (@4Viewers) reported

    @Mr___Boy Hi John, we would suggest retuning your Freeview devices to see if this helps as we are having no widespread issues with this.
