@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.

@cromers It’s been so poor that I’ve watched stuff on DVD & iPlayer as well as replays on freeview channels over the festive period. Not to mention audiobooks and podcasts.

@james__love @Dr_Eoin_Malcolm @Aontaithe2021 They wouldn't be able to geoblock the Freeview signal in Derry though. It's too near the border/Republic for that. It's easy to block on Sky, because they know exactly which jurisdiction cards are registered in.

@TimHoelscherX They likely mean cable or network TV, which when you think about it, is accurate. I don't watch TV (I don't have Freeview set up, nor do I have Sky, TiVO or Virgin Cable etc) but I do have Netflix/Prime, which are websites/apps.

Of course the weather has changed and with it the signal from Freeview's temporary mast has yet again changed. Went from all the BBC channels and 6 other channels (no ITV/C4), Then as the warmer weather moved northwards we lost all the BBC channels and after a retune got the 6

@LGUKCare are you gonna bring Freeview Play to the 2020 TVs considering it’s available again on the 2021 sets? Really is a poor showing that All4 is still unavailable on the 2020 models
