Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

@Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

@LewisHamilton @SilverstoneExp That may be the case Lewis. If you really want to inspire the next generation. F1 needs to be on Freeview. It willl never happen though.

Dear @Channel4 please can you add live streaming to your 4OD service. My Freeview signal is shocking and I'm missing Bake off and this is very distressing

@mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

You don’t realise how awful freeview is until your waiting for the sky man to come to your house 🥴

@JamesHReeve @dave_brammer Stop Press: It was on one of the oddball Freeview movie channels on Sunday I recorded it for my missus who had never seen it. She watched it tonight and loved it. Kitchen sink drama/comedic overtones due to cringingly accurate portrayal of 50's Bolton.

@PaulieHughes Kinda bizarre that Kodi has to be sideloaded, the Fire platform is locked down in mysterious ways... I have two HD 8s at work that I need to short a clock pin on at some point On the missing all front: our Sony TV was missing all the British OD stuff unless you setup Freeview

@MNotts19 @thefreepress2 @TheProleStar we only had our licence to watch PMQs...we cant get freeview signal here and stopped virgin tv too pricey and paying for so many free to air channels. After GE i stopped my licence and wrote official complaints. £12 a month better off!!

@FreeviewAdvice hi, im having trouble receiving drama (channel 20 freeview) on all sets in my house. All other channels fine, although sometimes the picture breaks up on them.

@JWhittingdale says that he’s asked why they don’t make BBC a subscription service but you can’t do that while majority of people receive their TV through Freeview. May eventually change, but we’re a long way from that. Licence fee debate will be part of 2027 charter review.

@obbsie Wow, that's a lot for a crap service! Why not dispense with them completely, instead just use FreeView and iPlayer (free) and pay for whatever streaming services you need. Going to come in at way less than you're paying now.

@willhowells I remember how they f*cked even that up. I missed the TV address because I was watching a freeview channel it wasn’t on & there was nothing to point to a channel it was on. & the text message arrived days late & iirc the link in it was broken. 🏴 imperfect but better.

@HumzaYousaf @Stuart_McDonald . watching Freeview every advert features a black or mixed race actor I can see why people get antsy - and poor white people don't have community or identity... But that is different to the bullying of brown people that follows or rejecting that on colonialism need re-educating

@ElaineYoung94 They have a children's lottery in Scotland. I know.... good cause , but a bad name. I got a Scottish sky freeview card for 12 Euro from some crowd in Sligo when I cancelled my sky subscription. So I watch Scottish ads on sky.

@rat_mortuis @korahawhare I don’t have freeview tv & I literally cancelled Sky the day after my ex & I split up- such a great feeling. He used to spend every evening flicking between sports channels but never watching anything for more than a few minutes 😱 I have Netflix & sometimes watch “on demand”
