    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV I recently purchased a Philips Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR LED TV with Google Assistant does it support Freeview play as I can't get the apps to work.

  • ukbronco Paul Mitchell #5280 ⚽ 🏈 🏉 🤘🍺 (@ukbronco) reported from Wibsey, England

    @Emmalouisajones @SkyNews Poor retro-protest. You can't cancel Sky News. It's on Freeview.

  • NeelyFanForever ☘️NeelyFanTerry ☘️ (@NeelyFanForever) reported from Garforth, England

    @MaddFan1 Same thing happened to me a few years ago, I was quite happy watching @AJEnglish on Freeview and then suddenly it went on to freeview HD, which my box wasn't. My problem was finally solved when they started broadcasting live on Youtube.

    @AmazonHelp I bought a Freeview PVR on my new Argos but have since decided I don't want it. It's still ready for collection at the Huddersfield store. What can I do to cancel this and have my card refunded

  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

  • mp4_toffeeman Craig Foreman (@mp4_toffeeman) reported

    @thedann__ Always avoided it because of him. Our BBC 1 freeview channel went down a few months ago so decided it to give it a go... I lasted less than 5 minutes and turned it off and put the radio on. He was insufferable

  • thisisjoeob Joe O'Brien (@thisisjoeob) reported

    @nickpiggott More that the ITV Hub is crap. And I didn’t realise so many people had either no TV or no freeview. But yes. Q is it!!

  • superwonderstar The Industrious Ant (@superwonderstar) reported

    @kaybar007 Any broadcast service - satellite, cable, or Freeview - has to obey the Ofcom size rules, no matter what technology they use. The examples you give of services like Netflix are online services, not broadcast, and not regulated by Ofcom.

  • cynicalgranny1 Linda (@cynicalgranny1) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi can you advise on whether we will be able to receive the new News GB channel when it starts. As our signal is from a small sub transmitter we do not receive all the current freeview channels anyway which is really annoying.

  • RebeccaLouWard Rebecca Louise Ward (@RebeccaLouWard) reported

    @OurTardis63 I never got to watch this series of doctor who cause I could not find it on freeview :( On what channel can we watch doctor who these days?

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @Djsat22 Hi there, we don't believe they will be getting Freeview Play, but we are working with the broadcasters directly to support the UK catch-up apps. They already support BBC iPlayer, and many already support ITV Hub, with the remaining models to follow. (1/2)

  • WhoHelpsOut Ezekiel Thorp (@WhoHelpsOut) reported

    Please UKTV network, if you won't put Matt Smith and Jodie Whittaker episodes on the Drama channel then at least put the W channel on Freeview

  • sircofdan Sir C of Dan (@sircofdan) reported

    @sunorx @Vicster82 Fortunately the various restraining orders mean you'll never get within a hundred yards of a woman. The closest you'll get to kids will be when you're pressed against the glass outside Curry's trying to make sense of CBeebies on the freeview screens

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @SCEthelAustin @tanita_tikaram I suggested Morgan might join GB News or one of the phone in radio stations but Murdoch is launching a TV service and seemingly his will be via the internet whereas Neil's channel has a slot on Freeview. Sky and Freesat.

  • geoffreytucker1 Geoff Tucker (@geoffreytucker1) reported

    @englandcricket IS it going to be broadcast in England as the test match was? I can't see it in the Freeview listings(?). Or is it merely another narrow cast to some subscription service or other?
