  • 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

  • old_bob52 Kevin Bull (@old_bob52) reported from Coventry, England

    @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.

  • 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.

    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…

    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.

    @celebrityradio Saturday tv, like watching paint dry, but I still keep watching old comedy's and old films on dvd sad I know but no choice, plus talking pictures not a bad ch 81 freeview,,

  • rozlaws Roz Laws (@rozlaws) reported

    Does anyone I know on Twitter know about the tech of TV sets? I mainly watch it through my Sky box, but I can also get Freeview on terrestrial. That seemed to be hooked up via my VCR - yes, I still have one! Haven’t used it for years and now it seems to have broken, and… 1/2

  • Oxfordite Rupert wilson (@Oxfordite) reported

    @geofflath @alexbloor UK: freeview via Satellite.. same as freeview via aerial, sometimes more reliable signal.

  • JStewart_15 Josh Stewart (@JStewart_15) reported

    @Katht2711 Have you got an aerial plugged in? I do as when broadband goes down freeview will still work

  • DougGore Douglas Gore (@DougGore) reported

    It's 2021 and there is still no sane way to have a streaming equivalent of Freeview or Freesat that can be accessed from a single UI. This is why public service broadcasting is dying.

  • JahaanTweets 🌺JahaanTweet🌺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@JahaanTweets) reported

    I've decided 100% to cancel Sky TV once my contract is up. I'll use a recordable Freeview box in the living room. And I've got Amazon Prime video, so that's enough TV channels and will save money.

  • PhilipTemple50 Philip Temple. (@PhilipTemple50) reported

    @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP @bphillipsonMP I'm on my own had 32 pounds on electricity never had electric fire on or washer just got basics on TV freeview box now down nearly a 5er. Robbing bastards

  • AdamBede3 Adam Bede (@AdamBede3) reported

    @dawneva3 @TalkingPicsTV I looked it up it is channel 81 on Freeview and I scan the the channels and it wasn't there, I wonder if anyone elsse has had trouble? There was a 60's film on the other day I wanted to see.

  • rozlaws Roz Laws (@rozlaws) reported

    @jonnylaws1 No. Socket in wall connected to dish/aerial, which is connected to my box and is allowing me to watch tv that way. But I liked the option to also watch Freeview, handy if lots of progs on at same time. The ‘source’ on tv screen now says there’s no tv signal that way, not sure why

  • GalanthusA Angel (@GalanthusA) reported

    @GBNEWS Are you broadcasting at a reduced signal strength? For around a week I have been getting glitches affecting sound and picture and its so bad today its even affecting a set with a booster on it. All other channels are fine and I have tried re-tuning. I watch on Freeview
