    @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)

  • SJIFreddyFan82 Sarah Jane Illingworth 😷💗 (@SJIFreddyFan82) reported from Castleford, England

    I feel this thing of channel 4 and 5 and Freeview going down was a publicity stunt to add to all the fuel crisis today. **** you channel 4 and 5.

    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV @PhilipsCare 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.

    Annoying picture glitch and noise on #frasier on @Channel4 right now (HD and SD freeview). Very annoying. Please fix it.

    @dougmcfarlane41 @NickyAACampbell @bbc5live There was something on the radio the other day about claiming money from companies who don’t provide paid internet services after so many days. I guess freeview wouldn’t be included. What is the actual problem, have they said?

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @a516digital E4+1 is back on Freeview on the west midlands transmitter at least. Though the picture quality is poor even by Freeview standards though on checking +1 is far better than the standard service. +1 is also missing its DOG.

    @PatricProAuthor One of the freeview (free to air) UK TV movie channels has already switched to nothing but Christmas movies, who watches three months of schmaltzy Christmas crap ?

  • willmgreenhalgh William Greenhalgh (@willmgreenhalgh) reported

    @Maxiwacks @Channel4 it more seems to affect channel 4 HD then certain programmes but it also seems to act differently depending on what service your using, such as satellite cable and freeview, or internet services which are mostly broken
