@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@AnnReynold73527 @FreeviewTV Freeview TV guide reception in East Yorkshire around early November 2025. The Belmont transmitter, which serves much of the region including Hull and surrounding areas, had planned engineering works during the week starting October 27, 2025. This could lead to signal disruptions.

@msapsfordmusic What I don’t like is that you record a movie that’s on regular tv then you go to watch it a few days later & it sky store only plus there’s loads of Freeview that’s on sky q but not on glass. We’ve only had problems with the remote tbh I know others have had glitches on screen

Freeview 231 BBC news is reporting multiple stabbing on train in Cambridgeshire. I get that it's breaking news but is it absolutely necessary to bang on repeating the same **** over and over again for more than half an hour.
