  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    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.

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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.

  • rozzietheaussie rozzietheaussie (@rozzietheaussie) reported from Royal Leamington Spa, England

    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

  • geovilla77 georgie green (@geovilla77) reported from Bromsgrove, England

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

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported

    @BeccaHutson Any chance of looking into getting an Android TV version of the app up in the future? It'll certainly help those of us on Freeview who have a poor quality picture be able to watch in HD instead.

  • Gr3enFN Gr3en (@Gr3enFN) reported

    @nipsyfn yeh its freeview for the **** fights, pretty sure it will end when the good ones start

  • adamwhumphreys Adam neu Adda (@adamwhumphreys) reported

    **** sake man, hate having to use BBC iPlayer to was the game because there's a bit of a delay on it. Found out about the goal on Twitter 20 seconds before it happened. (Also, I am watching it on S4C, but I gotta go through BBC iPlayer to get it cos I can't pick up Freeview).

  • terryphi Terry Phillips (@terryphi) reported

    @afneil @GBNEWS Not available on Freeview in some rural areas with signal from local relay transmitters. These have limited range of channels and GB News is not included.

  • DiGada1 Ali (@DiGada1) reported

    @TRACEYBRO @GBNEWS Unfortunately there's always been a load of freeview channels that have never been available where I live.

  • terryphi Terry Phillips (@terryphi) reported

  • AndrewCLeach Andrew C Leach (@AndrewCLeach) reported

    @afneil @GBNEWS It's disappointing the Freeview signal doesn't support subtitles, but I suppose you haven't reached the relevant audience thresholds yet. That might happen quickly!

  • MondDevon Ray Griffiths (@MondDevon) reported

    BBC iPlayer dropping out, awful UHD colour rendition. HD Freeview by far the better viewing option #ENGCRO

  • Cerb32 Cerb32 (@Cerb32) reported

    @suzseddon Yes, but Freeview reception is poor.

  • mexisme telinit 6 (@mexisme) reported

    @jonoabroad If you get a Vodafone set-top box, you can also subscribe to Sky. However, you can change or cancel the service(s) month-by-month. TBF, the Voda set-top box is quite good c.f. the competition; works fine on Freeview, streaming services (incl. NZ ones).
