    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

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

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

  • SLCollindridge Sean Collindridge (@SLCollindridge) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @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

  • ggnewed Ash #BlackLivesMatter (@ggnewed) reported

    I don't watch Emmerdale any more, but I do like the terse episode summaries they put up on freeview. "Marlon bodypops. Something is loud. Terrible smell at the pub."

  • tvark TVARK (@tvark) reported

    BBC Three returns to Freeview on Tuesday so you may need to retune your TV or set-top box. BBC Three will be on channel 23, DaveJaVu moves to 25. All other channels between 25 and 85 all move down 1 place on the programme list. Ideal World is now on 51, TJC on 22. Happy retuning!

  • wozdm38 warren myers (@wozdm38) reported

    @bbcthree @BBCiPlayer So crap you actually came back to freeview...lol

  • Declan_M_Wilson Declan Wilson (@Declan_M_Wilson) reported

    @Knibbsey Yep. Noticed it yesterday. Hopefully soon in HD. Gloucester residents using Freeview however still get their news from the Midlands ☹. Sadly don't think there's a fix for that.

  • Dezos1984 Derek Liddle (@Dezos1984) reported

    .@ITV4 I get ITV4 through Freeview and, for a couple of days now, the signal has been very poor, with visual and audio break-up. I’ve re-tuned the TV, but this hasn’t helped. Any ideas on what is causing this?

  • empire24453 EmpireKicking (@empire24453) reported

    @arqiva Around Saltburn location and not receiving any Freeview TV signals, Is it down again..? Bilsdale temporary tower would be the nearest. It's been 48 hours since down.

  • DoctaP2 Pazzle Ron Cupboard (@DoctaP2) reported

    @simontucker1979 My parents eventually paid to have a booster aerial put in, just to try and pick up channel 4. Cost like a hundred quid and the signal was pretty patchy but it worked just about, wasn't that much longer before they started broadcasting it anyway tho I think, maybe Freeview time.

    Hey Freeview, I don’t want to keep pressing yellow all the damn time, make it stop!

  • semtexsue SemtexSue ⛄🦀🏊‍♀️🧜‍♀️💙🏳️‍🌈 (@semtexsue) reported

    @thewelshteacup Ugh. Poor you. Have you retuned your digital tvbox? New freeview channel 7, That's TV. 70s night. It's fab. Worth not sleeping for!

  • thescoogeman walter pancott (@thescoogeman) reported

    @bod_uherald Blocked if trying to watch it via Sky but available with no issues on freeview. My channel is 866.
