    @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.

    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 😂

    @Greyfoxp So I take it this is is why BBC News in HD is stopping on Freeview on 30 June to save money for stupid ideas like this one

    @poshabroad @dcunited How’s the game? 3 - 0 down! Don’t look like scoring! (Watching it on some freeview channel)

    @VirginMedia_TV Now that Com7 Freeview MUX is causing channels to close in droves and gems like Forces TV going forever, how about reducing you TV package prices, as I have about 150 channels of garbage which I never watch. How you can tout "modern TV" is beyond belief .

    Zoe's internet has crashed just as we were settling down to watch Kenobi on Disney 🤬 Freeview is the only option and after 2 minutes of Glastonbury I'm about to put pins in my eyes and tie a rope around the nearest tree...
