    @Gbeebies If you're watching on Freeview the picture quality is likely down to most streams on the commercial multiplexes being transmitted at 544x576 then stretched to 16x9 to keep bandwidth down (thus sell more channel slots). This is down to the multiplex operator, not the channels.

    @CaptainKramer @SkyHelpTeam @GBNEWS Freeview 236? Crap picture quality but still eminently better than the other news outlets.

    What’s all this fuss about regarding @GBNEWS Only problem I found when watching on Freeview was the sound.

    @DrClaireH Discovering that this is available on Freeview has vindicated my policy of only ever retuning when I suddenly lose a channel I actually watch--every time I do retune I get mesmerised by a bunch of new and terrible additions

    @paddypower Tell everyone to turn over to the BBCRB service 601 on freeview you get the radio commentary with Jermaine Jenas 🕺

    @ofthesparrows When I was in halls and using freeview I used an Argos portable Ariel for my signal That ws before the analogue shutdown so not sure how easy they would be able to get now The signal strength was limited with that & from my room / location such I could only watch a few channels
