@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.

@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…

@matthewcarter7 Freeview Play 4K TVs ... they have good support. TiVo v6 did at WC but have not confirmed this time around. Still need to check my SkyQ, but Android TV devices almost universally don't...

@RobintheBear @sixteennine If I may, Samsung DM75E's 450 nits seems a bit short for outdoor, should put it in a shaded area if possible. As for the Freeview signal it's standard HDMI1, HDMI2 and HDCP 1.4, it shouldn't cause any problem.

@Danny_McMoomins Its going to be able on Freeview 643 or something even after the **** grot channels. The daytime TV Gammon's will never reach it too many world war 2 docs, reruns of lovejoy and homes under the hammer to skip through first.

We are all urged to support England in Euro 2020 , but I seem to remember that those of us that only had freeview T V were not allowed to watch our national team in the UEFA Nations League not so long ago, funny how things change.

@BBCMonitoring @Ofcom @Freeview To whom can one report TV reception problems? Freeview and Ofcom direct to the BBC’s site, which requires 15 minute completion of details before announcing that ‘there was a problem - please try again’. Repeatedly. No TV reception for 3 days
