@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.

@Clare_Dales @PeoplesPool Yes, on iPlayer. Called Dhan Uisge (To The Water). I'm never sure about which Freeview transmitter transmits what group of channels. On satellite , if its up there for the UK, you can get it. No effing govt flogging off little bits of it!

Freeview channel 53 crashed the smart tv. Google said unplug, and then said reflow the motherboard. Managed to solve it by pressing lots of buttons all at once whilst holding down the power button onto AV menu🍺

@Mikalisyid My contract with Sky ended last month & I never renewed. 17 years a customer & I finally had enough. We have Amazon Prime, Netflix, Freeview & so far we’ve literally not noticed it gone as a family. I had the full Sky Q package for £65 so did have a good deal but glad it’s gone.

@a516digital As to freeview, better off talking to harry hill, they know absolute nothing about the problem i had. 4 times ive had this looked at now, because freeview passed my details on.
