    @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.

  • 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 😂

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

  • stephen_j_moran Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported

    Virgin Media broadband is brilliant, phone line and mobile sims good, but their TV offering is poor. Alas, they package them all together. Their basic TV offering is no better than Freeview. The rest are exorbitant Sky packages etc. Apps dead slow through TiVo. Firestick v fast.

    @terrychristian @GBNEWS Terry, did you know there are people leaving the freeview channel GBNews on all day to, "help it's (sic.) ratings" ? I knew a lot of Britons are very thick, but this is some next-level of dense. #DumbBritain

    @getback39 All the updates we have are available on the Freeview website. I'm not aware of any issues that would happen in winter due to it being a temporary transmitter. Anne
