  • 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 😂

  • 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.

    Technology has been doing it's best to send me insane this weekend. Drop outs, disconnections, set up issues, now the right channel on Freeview stopped working for zero reason. All fixed, but unnecessarily annoying.

  • macmeonly buggrit (@macmeonly) reported

    @RupertLowe10 Why a subscription service? All the channels on Freeview manage.

  • ModernTVGold ModernTVGold (@ModernTVGold) reported

    @_tomasibray @a516digital At the moment when you checked poor old cinderella Freeview its the red screen, it isn't dead at the moment on HD and then they show some BBC programme clips before 7pm.

  • AboutEG About East Grinstead (@AboutEG) reported

    Anyone else experiencing poor Freeview reception on some channels this morning? Probably something to do with atmospheric conditions. Sporadic E?

  • fleming77 Jane Fleming (@fleming77) reported

    Looking at TV Schedule on Freeview what a load of crap. The best television 1970-85 Present day comedians are performers without wit

  • kayleelouiisexo Kayleigh jackson (@kayleelouiisexo) reported

    @TwoHatsHarry @BriantLesley @bbcquestiontime Already been..years back when i was a stupid teenager. and it was luxery then, freeview tv, own kettle’s ect. Now they have xbox’s they can decorate their cell the lot. Why would anybody want a murderer to live life ?

  • EnglishGem1 English Gal 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 (@EnglishGem1) reported

    @Borisnose2 Never mind all that. Get yourself onto together Tv, drama or talking pictures on freeview classic tv there.

  • rockandrollmag Andy Milne (@rockandrollmag) reported

    @ITVX @ITVXhelp I just say as I see… it’s ****, if you check Twitter looks like it’s the same for pretty much everyone using the freeview app…maybe get your tech team to actually build a fresh app that just works? It’s literally never worked properly since day one

  • AndyWoodturner Andy Coates (@AndyWoodturner) reported

    OK...so the coaxial jumped from the Freeview box into the blueray box in it's own? "I never touched it." "I never touched it either." Fine. Then you have a sentient coaxial cable with a mischievous personality. "A what?" Nothing. It's fixed. "Oh, good. Can you look at the laptop”

  • AnotherCinna Another PARODY ACCOUNT Cinna (@AnotherCinna) reported

    @spuddemos @ITVX There's an app for your phone or computer or your TV (like BBC iplayer). But if you only get terrestrial channels or Freeview "live" on your TV, you might have to get someone to help you set it up.
