Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Watford and nearby locations:

  • 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 😂

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

    Love that @TalkingPicsTV now has Encore on the red button on Freeview, but the ratio is all wrong. Happy to watch in 4:3 if made that way but everything is in it, making some images stretched upwards. Please fix!

    @CameronYardeJnr @UKChristmasTV What freeview box do you have? Does it support manual tune?

  • EMcG67 Eamonn McGuinness (@EMcG67) reported

    @Flintaxe @BBCiPlayer Hello again. I seem to have fixed this issue. I didn't have a TV aerial connected to the back of the TV itself (I use a BT box.) Once I connected to the back of the TV, iplayer worked as it operates via the Freeview Play platform. Hope this works for you.

    @a516digital Was wondering if it might be quietly forgotten. There are no plans to include BBC News though in theory it could probably be squeeze in as well. Must say though finding the Freeview HD signal far less reliable now than it used to be.

    @bt_uk Dissapointed in your TV services . After being a Sky customer for years I thought I'd give BT a go . Can't even view BTSports in HD without paying extra and entertainment channels are mostly available on Freeview anyway.. Think I'll be returning to @SkyUK

  • DyslebrityDawg Raulstrebo aka Don-Paul ap Arfon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@DyslebrityDawg) reported

    @Seraph7th I have only ever seen a couple of minutes of Dog Soldiers. It was on a freeview channel a few months ago. Low budget British horror movie, no thank you. I still harbour 'issues' with low budget British film producers, they didn't want my screenplays, except James Atherton LOL

  • chefpwaring Phil Waring🔪🦁 (@chefpwaring) reported

    They better not cancel ******* @TVsPointless for this. BBC news is on Freeview for **** sake. 😡

  • MaryJasper2 Mary Jasper (@MaryJasper2) reported from Penzance, England

    @GBNEWS I am subscribed to GB News on YouTube but can’t seem to get it live. Freeview 236 has no watchable signal this morning. Please can anyone advise?

  • Bickiebeej beej (@Bickiebeej) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV hi, We have a brand new TV, Internet and freeview but we get as far as pressing OK to watch something then a blank screen, with the red button service. Are we not doing something obvious maybe?
