    @mulvey_adam Doesn't surprise me seeing as the Xmas channels turn up on Freeview in October every year without fail!

  • HKT3030 Nick "Concrete Farmer" Thorpe (@HKT3030) reported

    At one point, I was so into Doctor Who that I bought a Freeview box just so I could watch Torchwood on BBC Three, but I fell off after Matt Smith's first series. I've seen a Christmas special or two since and tried a Capaldi episode, but I never managed to get back into it.

  • oliverm_uk Oliver Marshall (@oliverm_uk) reported

    Just spent nearly £1000 on a new @Sony TV and the freeview experience is terrible. For those of us that still watch real TV, I feel very let down. Definitely buying @Samsung next time.

    @27476b54549e462 WATCH GB NEWS FREEVIEW 236. YOU WILL NEVER WATCH ANY OTHER NEWS CHANNEL. COVERS EVERYTHING THE OTHER ESTABLISHMENT CONTROLLED NEWS CHANNELS IGNORE ,BUT ARE PRIORITIES FOR THE PUBLIC.

    @JulieSmith2001 Freeview problems all over..east Yorkshire had trouble 9 months now

  • Deborahj_Powell Deborah Powell (@Deborahj_Powell) reported

    @dougmcfarlane41 At least it takes your mind off Freeview I suppose. I might have to rethink my "that doesn't happen in the UK" approach to dealing with Spanish bureaucracy and customer service agents.

  • fizzforbrexit fizzforbrexit (@fizzforbrexit) reported

    @NototyrannyNOW I just watch a bit of Freeview after 8.00pm but I usually have my nose in a book at the same time. But I didn't really watch TV much for years, preferring to read. I am convinced that the public have been brainwashed through TV for years, soaps, sports & god awful Reality TV.

    @TheDoctor2058 Crap TV reception might be weather related today. My freeview isn't brilliant. Hopefully it'll be back for you soon.
