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…

@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.

@virginmedia I just wish you would allow people to upgrade TV packages via the website, no issues with your other services, but can never get through to speak to someone, so spent the holidays with freeview, since I couldn’t upgrade via web

@james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

@mostlyceltic81 Why did you not buy one with Freeview built in then?? Seems like poor research before a major purchase to me.

@jamesmjharrison Unfortunately we had to buy two freesat boxes due to reception here being so bad they we could only get about 10 freeview channels and even those pixelled.

@bt_uk I never use Freeview. It's the connection via sky boxes. No error code, just constant "you cannot watch TV at the moment due to a connection error" ( or something like that)... It's happened about 50 times since 5:30 this morning, tablet loses connection too.

While @radionz is on news & current affairs blackout during "summer break", there's Al Jazeera on Freeview. This is what a commercialised RNZ would look like. One word: irrelevant.
