    @ShirleyaCook I'm just looking on mom's Freeview which I've never seen an R next to anything. I remember a while ago in the TV mags the BBC had an R next to most things

  • YorkieBkk LeedsYorkie (@YorkieBkk) reported

    @ashlucas75 I honestly have never even heard of it before. I think it was in Abu Dhabi the one I saw was just flicking through freeview channels and found it on there (free sports channel No 64) at silly o'clock when I could not sleep. Was def good fun though 👍

  • Stephen_Writer Stephen Blake (@Stephen_Writer) reported

    @gareth0108 We don't even get 4G or any mobile signal, so not an issue. (Or Freeview, DAB etc.)

    @emmerdale @ITV @WeAreSTV too far fetched now Emmerdale going down fast Been watching re runs on freeview [1998] was pretty dam good in those days

  • JohnnyDownes ❌Johnny Downes #FJB GETTR same handle (@JohnnyDownes) reported

    The Criminal (1960. Director: Joseph Losey. Stars Stanley Baker, Sam Wanamaker, Patrick Magee). Showing tonight on #TPTV Freeview Channel 81. Great film. Look out for Colour Sgt Bourne as a bad guy.

  • TiredRich_ Rich Stanley (@TiredRich_) reported

    Anyone's Freeview go off for about one minute in North West? Still seemed to have full signal.. someone flicked a switch at winter hill?

  • BixWeetabecke Bix Weetabecke (@BixWeetabecke) reported

    @IndigoFast @glasgowswestend UKTV Play didn't need one, but it does now. However, the channels they own that aren't on Freeview or Freesat aren't on it. I know why I have an ITV account. They've brought in an ad-free premium subscription service, which is what a lot of commercial radio stations have done.

  • AgentSchmith Agent Smith (@AgentSchmith) reported

    @jasonpwalk @Talesofanalfa I would expect you'll need a freesat decoder / set top box at each TV to interpret the signal. It's slightly different from FreeView which the TV may well have a built in digital tuner for, but will expect a tuning signal from on the RF port.

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @vtvseries I can't get v on forces tv I have Freeview can you help me please?.V

  • lynda_lyndatw Lynda Rolington (@lynda_lyndatw) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice The Freeview picture signal cuts out frequently every day for several seconds. The signal in this area is terrible. Sometimes it is almost impossible to watch a freeview program because of continual picture losses. My postcode is TN10 4NE and house number is 48
