    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV I recently purchased a Philips Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR LED TV with Google Assistant does it support Freeview play as I can't get the apps to work.

    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

    @LeapfrogMark @TalkTV @iancollinsuk Most of the BBC is not suitable for a subs service, for example, no UK news programme is subscription only (even sky is on freeview) and technically it is not possible for radio stations. An advertising and sponsorship is more realistic but other media outlets will not like it

  • games_nomad nomad (@games_nomad) reported

    @JennieStrife Digital freeview is still transmitted through aerials, so yeah they still work. You just need to have a freeview enabled TV or a set-top box, old TV's can't pick up the signal.

  • nisbetbryce Nisbet Bryce (@nisbetbryce) reported

    @BootstrapCook Sometimes. The cabling should work fine so long as the box and your TV have an HDMI port. Problem might be whether the Freeview signal in your area is strong enough to be picked up by a small aerial.

  • CamillaWest Camilla West (@CamillaWest) reported

    @BootstrapCook I did this for my mum after she had a falling out with all the cable/phone companies. Had to get a booster areal but got all the freeview channels and just went weird and pixelated in very bad weather!

    @joelist This is very interesting. PBS have a UK Freeview channel so you'd think they could just show it there if they really wanted to, but they don't (and never have) owned the rights. I read that a lot of Sesame Street's income was from DVDs, and that has now vanished.

  • WellyGeeNZ Gary Weatherhead 💉x3 (@WellyGeeNZ) reported

    @Suzyiam If you have a modern-ish ‘Freeview’ aerial on your roof then you can get NZ’s free to air Freeview service. 26 TV channels and 2 radio stations (other parts of NZ it may vary, that’s here in Kāpiti). I have a 6yr old TV which gets Freeview fine, plus I use Netflix & Disney apps

    @virginmedia is there a way to negotiate a new contract without being on the phone for 2 hours+? Raising my bill from £45 to £66 automatically when the contract ends is absolutely disgusting for what I receive. Internet that goes down and paying for the same channels as freeview?

  • katy_whitton Katy (@katy_whitton) reported

    And talk about being late to the party in December 2021 it was announced that Channel 5 had joined the organisation responsible for Freeview and Freesat, Digital UK, becoming the last of the UK's major Public Service Broadcasters to join the body 15/

    If betting on the #WorldSnookerChampionship be aware that Freeview is several seconds faster than satellite with on line in a poor third place. Best place to bet the foyer of The Crucible or even in the auditorium! #snooker

  • scott_gamer Scott M (@scott_gamer) reported

    @Page_888 @russty_russ The rebrand made sense, but the channel only airing at that time of the day on Freeview didn't. It was never going to be able to compete with the BBC and Sky, so I'm surprised that ITV's news channel managed to last 5 years on the air.
