@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.

@TPTVEncore Hi folks. This may be a silly question but does the red button service work on a Freeview TV that isn't connected to wi-fi? My brother lives in north Wales and can get @TalkingPicsTV but has no wi-fi or even a landline. Should he be able to use the red button still?

@FreeviewAdvice I've already done this and you said to contact Restore tv so I think it's just freeview that is rubbish as I'm always having problems even though i have a filter fitted

@NMBCo @hardistymark Pretty sure East Midlands Today is a standard definition signal slapped into an HD channel. Just got freeview to save money, back to the ol’ ‘High Def not available in your area’ message. If we want to see our news broadcasters in high def, we have to see them down the pub.

@SkyHelpTeam Having trouble with my upstairs Sky box. Sounds coming on but screen is black. Nothing wrong with telly as I can get on Freeview and Netflix etc directly on the TV so it's definitely the Sky box. Any ideas?

@All4 I'd be grateful if you could help with this query please. Our tv set doesn't support freeview so we watch on All4. Could you tell me how soon after a programme has been shown live is it available on demand? We don't want to be missing the Super League match tomorrow.

@TPTVEncore @TalkingPicsTV My Freeview CH82 Red Button doesn't work 🙄 but the TV isn't that old and is updated regularly, any clues as to what systems it should work on, please?

@UKChristmasTV Full listings now on Freeview guide too. I notice that a shopping strand on HobbyMaker has a Closing Down Sale, I guess they may have noticed that there is more demand for content on Sewing Street and Hobby Maker on the channel.
