@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.

@skytv @TalkTV Why is the picture and sound glitchy. The picture quality is great but it's just not playing correctly. Note... Rest of my channels are fine even CNN which in bad weather disappears 1st. Also freeview is working fine... Thank you.

I can't get a Freeview signal (no rooftop aerial, powered indoor aerials don't work) and can't put up a satellite dish. Not paying Virgin. So trying to find a purely digital solution. None are easy or come with a simple guide/planner.

Could @RadioTimes tell me how many times a day I'm expected to re-sign in on their website now after the update? Doesn't seem to matter how many times I set my preferences as Freeview NW, within an hour or so they've defaulted back to every channel London. GRRR

@chomper_TC @CodsyBear We do struggle to find stuff on Netflix these days - even alot of their « new » shows have already been on Freeview. Trouble with Amazon is there is alot of stuff without subtitles and we need those much of the time 🙄

@Russtophocles1 There is a freeview ad where someone has broken it down and shows predictive programming and something hitting the earth in 2022 was part of that if I can find it I’ll send over

People who have freeview in Belfast: is the signal universally terrible or is it just my particular aerial?
