    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

    @utdfox We didn't have Sky and it was never shown on the Freeview channels. I did watch the Pokemon DPPT animes, Bakugan, Beyblade, Tokyo Mew Mew and Digimon Data Squad though.

    ITV is to close its SD service in the West Country, Yorkshire and Central East regions for viewers with Sky or Freesat. These regional news services will only be available in HD. There are no changes on Freeview or Virgin Media.

    Bloody great. Apparently there's planned engineering works on the Mendip #Freeview transmitter so we can't get a single bloody channel. Why BT uses Freeview for half their channels instead of transmitting them all through their net service I don't know.

    @OldRoberts953 We very rarely watch BBC programmes- not much to interest us. It’s normally other freeview channels or at a stretch a subscription service.

    @katelilyn @simonmayo Same issue here in Glesga. Resorted to app. Supposed to be able to get it on Freeview via TV. Kitchen TV rubbish sound quality, living room OK. At least app is more portable.

    @acraftycow Same with SP. I did the comparison sites to switch but it’s still the cheapest. No wonder Tonik went under, we were all underpaying! I’ve also got rid of any tv service & just have streaming + freeview to offset the money increase. Adulting is boring!

    @LankyCarGuy Because Freeview transmitters have only a fixed number of frequencies they can broadcast a signal on. Each frequency can carry a number of separate channels, but that number depends on the quality. Reduce the quality and you can fit more channels (and more revenue) in.

    You’re never more than six feet away from an episode of The Inbetweeners on one of the Freeview channels
