  • skipaiotter Skipai Otter @cohost/skipaiotter (@skipaiotter) reported

    @bad1ands True but I don't think the UK Gov would want to do that as it's too costly. What if mobile network went down? There has to be other ways here. Even if there's emergency broadcast masts put up that transmit on everything. VHF, UHF, Freeview, Freesat, Sky, Cable, etc.

  • dr1141 D (@dr1141) reported

    @SteveWalesPhoto @StansaidAirport @DavidBflower That's modern technogy, we still have our Baird 405 line set with those spindly screw in legs. Problem is reception of Freesat / Freeview is frankly rubbish. But we like that screensaver when we turn off at night. This fading dot - riveting.

  • lexied0llxo Angel 💗 Lexie Doll 😇💗💖 (@lexied0llxo) reported

    @Lucindacutexx12 @LeonaLionheart7 @AdultWorkcom Yes if they're quick enough they can dip in and out without paying !! These new rules are stupid. I would never ever sit in Freeview. It's hard enough to make revenue and these rules are creating expectation that we should sit in free

  • formerhero_ former hero ~ (@formerhero_) reported

    i never had sky TV or any of the channels i could listen to rock music thru other than once a week thru a really shady freeview channel and a huge part of my music taste came thru that, and blink were on that

  • ihatemogs Micheál O'Fiach (@ihatemogs) reported

    @crusaders1898 @andrewhdonohoe @Saraita101 No because it's called Saorview here, uses slightly different technology and doesn't carry BBC channels, only RTÉ and a few other domestic channels. Freeview, the UK system, is available in border areas where the signal leaks over the border, impossible to change.

  • TerryMeehan1234 Terry Meehan (@TerryMeehan1234) reported

    @FreeviewTV Hi Freeview 101 BBC has no EPG since your retune. Can you fix that please?

  • FreddySky Freddy C. 🌈 🇮🇹🇪🇸🇵🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇩🇰🇫🇷 (@FreddySky) reported

    @jpxan71 @MasterChefUK Food network, on Sky it’s on 140, on freeview is channel 43.

  • itz_literally Itz_Literally_Me (@itz_literally) reported

    @Tedsquare23 I mean, nowadays everyone has a TV (unless they are dropped to Basic) but they are Freeview & have radio stations.. ... also the wing would be listening to sad hour for people outside requesting songs for them... And blasting music a weekend off their Barnets! Wtf is he chat'n!?

  • S4C S4C 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@S4C) reported

    @yanto007 @S4Cchwaraeon English commentary will be available on the Red Button on Freeview. Any issues on the day get back to us.
