    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    @Patriotic253 @StefGotBooted @tomhfh Anyone working for GB “News” deserves to be pilloried. The quality is dreadful all round; presenters, guests, pictures, & sound. I’m sure I’ve seen better quality 16mm film, & if you can hear sound (which you can’t on Freeview) the quality is poor. I’d be embarrassed to be on it

  • Nicky_Harrison_ 𝗘𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗸𝘁𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗡𝗶𝗸𝗶💁🏻‍♀️🇬🇧 (@Nicky_Harrison_) reported

    @ant_hkuk @GBNEWS Are you with the #Freeview? They have issues all the time don't they? Some people are not getting #GBNews broadcast to them at all, confirmed by @FreeviewAdvice. And I'm sure they dealt with that a few days back you know, the synching issues. What show did you last notice it on?.

  • Elizabe04647609 Elizabeth (@Elizabe04647609) reported

    @GBNEWS @graydominic4 Unable to receive GB news on 236 on Freeview. Tuned the tv still cannot get 236. Anyone else having this problem?

  • OBAHIANO4 OBAHIANO (@OBAHIANO4) reported

    @deedollydee @GBNfans Channel 236 on freeview (it is on our T.V.), just a few channels down from B.B.C. NEWS 24. 👍🏾

  • Statto_74 Andy Rockall (@Statto_74) reported

    I only have Freeview HD but cannot believe the difference in clarity. Have chosen to watch Sweden v Poland which is on ITV 4 in SD it’s crap compared to ITV HD.

  • korewatori Tori (@korewatori) reported

    @TheApsy17 @WechGangInt legit it's so ******* stupid. There's something called freeview that gives you access to quite a large amount of basic channels but I don't think that includes the BBC. The licence is required to watch anything produced by the BBC and to watch stuff when its broadcasted live

  • nhs_groverhaus Spooks Malloy (@nhs_groverhaus) reported

    @LamentablyAwake @BierStarmer @BareLeft This is the problem though, a Unite channel will just be all the same people but now on freeview for some reason.

  • kiwiwalrus Keryn Knight (@kiwiwalrus) reported

    Why is @TVNZ making it harder for kiwis to access their content? Why split your on demand content from freeview and require people to have yet another app and login? Are you planning on charging for it? Or do you just enjoy causing inconvenience? @TVNZondemand

  • DaMisanthrope Alan Wen (@DaMisanthrope) reported

    I never even use ITV’s other channels and suspiciously can’t find ITV4 on freeview. But it’s on the ITV hub app. Bah, I don’t care anyway. Got other stuff to do this evening.
