-
Gerry Carpenter (@GerryCarpenter3) reported from Sunderland, England@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!

Nicola (@aquablu) reported from Whitley Bay, EnglandIf we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@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.

Manx Kipper🇬🇧 (@kipper_manx) reported@ElaineKirk @another_jan @canadiancarol1 Yes, that is what I watch it on, if you have a smart TV there is possibly some way of doing it through Freeview or other catch up service? Unfortunately I don’t have a smart TV, just an old one that sat silently in a corner when I stopped watching tv in disgust years ago!

GPM (@Geoff_NUFC) reported@JustCraggles @virginmedia @BlueYonder I had the same, went from paying £40 a month to nearly £70. Dropped the TV because its ****, I was on the basic TV which is pretty much freeview. Went to sky for TV and was going to take the sky broadband until they gave me a reduced price. Its worth complaining about.

Jason Wilson (@WhizzoUK) reportedThe picture quality on ITV4 on Freeview for Ukraine v Austria is worse than some dodgy football streams I've obviously never watched.

Gareth Evans (@lardychap) reported@matsyendrasana I tried freeview but my aerial is too **** I can only pick up one channel on it

Dan 🏴 (@FplStatsdan) reportedUK peeps: is there any way to watch ITV4 in HD if you only have Freeview? Relegating the match which actually matters for qualification to ITV4 is a poor move from ITV.
