    @Murphofrompres1 @GBNEWS I see. I haven't changed the way I watch @GBNews though. We have aerial issues and don't get good reception on freeview. I may try again now though as that was at the start.

  • JeremyBennett JeremyBennett (@JeremyBennett) reported

    @MartinSLewis Amazon Prime and Netflix ! I clicked Amazon Prime above, because it is included in the delivery service so is effectively "free". We don't have Sky as we cancelled that many many years ago. We use iPlayer, 4OD, ITVOD, etc quite a bit too. For terrestrial we use HD Freeview.

    @andyfidler66 Hi Andy, I am so very sorry you cannot access Channel 51. The number of channels available on Freeview depends on where you get your television signal from. Great Christmas Movies broadcast on a Local MUX (frequency) which unfortunately is not available from all transmitters.

    @pjgoodman @HammerGothic Have still never seen it 🤦🏻 Don’t have Freeview so can’t join in 😭

  • JahaanTweets 🌺JahaanTweet🌺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@JahaanTweets) reported

    I've decided 100% to cancel Sky TV once my contract is up. I'll use a recordable Freeview box in the living room. And I've got Amazon Prime video, so that's enough TV channels and will save money.

    @prkirkley We never get those here! Not sure why but we only get about 90% of Freeview on our transmitter, so there are a few channels we don't get (CBeebies HD and Freesports too). Maybe they're also the most likely to go down elsewhere?

    @williamjohnmcl3 I only realised it was on Freeview. Still never nor will ever watch it #ScottishIndependence6

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @EvanD @cleanfeed_ttvr @Channel4 It is. C4 usually carry two subtitle feeds. One teletext feed and one DVB subtitle feeds. Sky boxes still support teletext (even if subtitles is the only application left) Freesat devices support DVB subtitles only (same as Freeview incidentally).

    bad atmospherics in London are causing a lot of Freeview channels to mess up BBC London, but because I am high up I can pick up BBC south and the reception is so much better

  • finchiniho John Finch (@finchiniho) reported

    @greatmoviesuk I've rescanned my Freeview box and my Freeview TV, but I can't get the Christmas channel, I'm in Kent, please help as I want my Christmas movie fix!
