    One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

    @TalkTV @Iromg Just catching up with the show. Gary Glitter should never have been released. Let's hope they keep him in prison this time and hopefully lose the key. As for the TV licence, the channels are free on Freeview, plus you're paying again with Virgin and sky. It should be scrapped.

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf @ mastodon.social 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    The bonus to this is less equipment & remotes needed as old TV had no freeview & HDMI selector as only had 1 HDMI input. Tho the old Firestick really is slow compared to the newer one I use in the livingroom. Old TV will go off to charity later.

  • jonwensley Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported

    @Boe12986 @GBNEWS @Jacob_Rees_Mogg If they do, they will have to go on a Sky/Virgin/Set-top box platform. People will then have to pay for the base service (>£20 a month) for what was free to air on Freeview before. 18m people use Freeview.

    "My freeview isn't working so that's obviously internet hackers and it's your fault" **** off ******

  • WhispersAngel Rosie needs a new Hip, not a Jab Matthew (@WhispersAngel) reported

    What ******** is up with Freeview tonight?

  • BRIANAL07933883 BRIAN ALLEN (@BRIANAL07933883) reported

    @Aisha_mk @FreeviewAdvice Go into Freeview Play from settings sign in and accept terms and conditions this should solve it

  • KaihatsuYT Kaihatsu (@KaihatsuYT) reported

    Personally, I'm not particularly bothered by it all. I've not had a particular interest in Pokémon for a while, but I never watched the anime much as a kid. I never saw it on TV in the UAE and it never seemed to be on Freeview in the UK on a regular schedule either.

  • CaptainCrash611 Mark Lyons - #VoteAnyoneButLibLabConGreen (@CaptainCrash611) reported

    @ColinSkinner17 @Dinosaur1177 @MartinDaubney The BBC is a pay TV station so like other pay TV stations they shouldn't be on Freeview and their signal should be scrambled on other platforms. If people without a license good on them

  • UnknownDB64 Ben (@UnknownDB64) reported

    Had a touch of the sads earlier, but watching Mrs Merton and Malcolm at 2am on a weird channel a long way down the Freeview and, by Christ, the writing is good. Quietly ingenious.
