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

  • 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.

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @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?

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

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

  • 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 😂

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @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

  • EmmaStitt59 Emma Stitt (@EmmaStitt59) reported

    @HelloSanctuary no TV input on sky or Freeview. Contractor for this came this morning. Can't get into the AV equipment cupboard. Can't get through to sky. Utterly shambolic way to treat Tennant's. Who runs a business like this??

  • botvolution Botvolution (@botvolution) reported

    Because I don't have sky or Netflix or prime or any of that **** I'm always about 5 years behind hype TV shows and then only the ones that eventually turn up on Freeview. It's quite restful in a way, I don't get drawn into endless twitter ingroup references. Lovely.

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @CallMeThoms @All4 Hi Tom, unfortunately LG and Digital UK were unable to reach an agreement for a Freeview Play device in time for the rollout of LG’s 2020 TV range, and this is why our 2020 models don't support the All4 app. (1/3)

  • BenJohn45874515 Ben Johnson (@BenJohn45874515) reported

    @Mark56623345 Apparently you can watch test transmissions on Freeview. Not sure how though as I've never had Freeview before.

  • KevyCanavan kevycanavan (@KevyCanavan) reported

    There’s a wee freeview Telly app on my playstation with all these made up channels. One of them plays most haunted all day on a loop, and does anyone know how to cancel sky?

  • leviijeanss brand😤 (@leviijeanss) reported

    @egusiwarrior the amount of nostalgia i’m getting right now, that was my **** freeview tv ones

  • BBCNottingham BBC Radio Nottingham (@BBCNottingham) reported

    Due to technical issues, transmission via 103.8FM may be affected between 12pm and 2pm today. But don't worry! You can still listen to BBC Radio Nottingham online, on Freeview, or by tuning over to DAB 📻 We're sorry for any inconvenience caused.

  • OldBlueyes ItsMePaullol (@OldBlueyes) reported

    @Old_Smudger @Richard_K_P @virginmedia Your one ?? Across the country 🙈🙈 the service is sht...how can people use Freeview if they haven't got it..

  • recovringlawyer Matt (@recovringlawyer) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, I’m trying to get RTÉ on Freeview in Belfast. I’ve tuned my TV and all the other channels save RTÉ are showing up. I should be in an area that benefits from the RTÉ signal.

  • top1percentile Nigel Bennett (@top1percentile) reported

    @danidotx Worth trying Al Jazeera on Freeview channel 235 for a different perspective on international issues.
