@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.

@AlanChand They’re not hard to find. They’re all over the Sky & Freeview EPG of a morning when the proper channels can’t be bothered to show real programmes. It’s a shame they’ve blocked me, because I’m a huge fan. We must support our own you know 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I just can't get them on my Talk Talk Freeview box. Any chance you could help as I'd rather watch them on my TV than on my tablet. Thanks.

Me who was going to be out no than 10am...almost three hours later. Messing around with the Freeview recorder. Seeing signal strength change every time you retune 😠and sometimes when you don't. It does look as though I need to buy a USB stick to allow any recording.

@mikeythenurse I rarely watch mainstream tv (don’t even have a Freeview tv) I’m SO glad you posted this! Watched it on TVNZ on demand. Good to see such positive stories of young people with supportive loving families Yeah the Zoladex needle is horrible. Remember the first time I ever gave one😳

@ArchRose90 Stupid question Chris - how can one view GB News? Or am I just being monumentally thick. Looked on YouTube but nothing. Is it on Freeview?

@trevorw1953 It won't be- it will be using spare bandwidth available when CBBC closes down at 7pm. BBC4 is the best channel on Freeview imho.
