    @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.

  • 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

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

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

  • 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 😂

  • 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.

  • FridayMinus My name is Matt (maybe) (@FridayMinus) reported

    @WotNot5 @GBNewsFails I've just been Googling about it - apparently they're having some problems on Freeview even after retuning (which is what I did). Everything about GB News just oozes high quality.

  • YoungOneUK AndyYoung (@YoungOneUK) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @Jamesmack007 @GBNEWS Speaking with people across my Town and troubleshooting with others across the internet. GBNews on Freeview is slightly blurry and fuzzy. This would suggest it is a Freeview transmission issue not a receiver issue as others are having the exact same problem.

    @GBNEWS @afneil Such a shame you’re all the way down the freeview channels on no.236 while the BBC are still squatting on the defunct BBC3 freeview channel no.7… Maybe after the teething troubles are sorted this is something to aspire to? Kindest regards

  • steveja89368890 stevie JJ . (@steveja89368890) reported

    What’s all this fuss about regarding @GBNEWS Only problem I found when watching on Freeview was the sound.

  • wordspinster Debbie Cameron (@wordspinster) reported

    @DrClaireH Discovering that this is available on Freeview has vindicated my policy of only ever retuning when I suddenly lose a channel I actually watch--every time I do retune I get mesmerised by a bunch of new and terrible additions

  • man_dobro DobroMan (@man_dobro) reported

    @MarcherLord1 @GBNEWS Freeview 236, crap picture but better than nithing

  • ofthesparrows josie sparrow (@ofthesparrows) reported

    somebody who is good at dad-type stuff please help me budget this, my ability to access freeview is dying

  • TonyMuller13 Tony Muller (@TonyMuller13) reported

    @BullshireSB Since when is Freeview a streaming service?

  • Donatedparts Steve Austin (@Donatedparts) reported

    @shoba_31 Not down, watching GB News on freeview 236.

  • skull441234 Flaue Xzergi (@skull441234) reported

    @Daily_Express HD on freeview tho, poor picture quality, unwatchable...
