  • 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 😂

  • 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.

    @JulietJeater Send it back for a refund and look at TVs with a Freeview Player installed. Not sure if this is down to BBC or Apple - had to speak with various Apple people around the globe before I ended up with an Irish one who understood the problem.

    @JasonManford If she’s watching a sky or freeview box through it try a new HDMI lead. I’ve seen that issue before. If it’s doing it from it’s built in Tuner then it’s likely the panel and is for repair/replace.

    Watching #GBNews on FreeView 236 yesterday there was a slight delay between the sound and the picture. Hope they can fix that. Otherwise... Excellent.

  • oneday1will #TeamQueen 🇬🇧 (@oneday1will) reported

    @GBNEWS I'm watching on your freeview channel. There is still a voice delay since it launched last night and every guest on, the sound quality is really poor. Sadly have to switch off for a while as its annoying to watch.

  • galeb80 barbara gale (@galeb80) reported

    @SusanHarris80 @toshtheblues I get it on freeview 236.....but had to quickly returne my TV first. However will give it a few days before I watch again while they sort the too many tech problems out. All very well investing in presenters and reporters only for the technical side to be a bit of a disaster.

  • SFran51 Stephen J. Bunclark 🇬🇧 (@SFran51) reported

    @GBNEWS Hi GB News can you fix your Freeview Broadcast. The Sound is too quiet. Can you replace it with the HD broadcast?

  • GuyMorfitt Guy Morfitt (@GuyMorfitt) reported

    @afneil Pls take sound engineers out & shoot them. Pic looks fuzzy on all platforms & Freeview sound & pic are out of sync. Dark studio background not working, esp for a bfast show. Pull up Colorama as temp fix. We need @LizKershawDJ @Fox_Claire double act on air pls. Good luck!

  • Lemonhunny Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported

    @JasonPedlow @HelenSalmon2 I can't pick it up on my Freeview TV, and not interested enough to know if it's available on anything else I have. But seriously? First guest was Nigel Farage? Yes, my lack of signal was definitely telling me to avoid it.

  • noonereallyca13 Solo💙🖤 (@noonereallyca13) reported

    @GBNEWS great to see your on sure though Freeview service still has audio sync issues from studio feed

  • colin1951uk Colin Knight (@colin1951uk) reported

    @GBNEWS I don’t know if it’s been mentioned but I watched on Freeview last night and often the sound was out of synch when a person was talking. The 9:00pm show was worst hit. It may have been teething troubles & ok on other platforms. I’ll check again later to see how it looks.
