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…

Great Movies Action channel (Freeview 42). “The Apocalypse” A disaster movie that is so apocalyptically bad that it hasn’t got enough budget for cgi of devastation. Just gormless characters watching TV news, or watching the devastation (neither of which is visible to the viewer).

@HumaxUK FVP_5000T. Cannot go backwards in the EPG anymore. Players screen often doesn't launch properly, fixing me no way into Freeview Play providers. Live TV app doesn't work properly and have been updated in years. Any plans to fix any of this? #humax

@neilbelieves Not seen it, it's on the list though. I remember it being quite controversial at the time here in the UK but I never bothered with it. Now I want to check it out, it's never available on freeview 🙄

@thefulltoss @hainba67 Participation numbers in all sports are in decline regardless of whether its on freeview tv. The downward trend has been since the late 1980s. My research shows its more likely down to the fact sport is not played in state schools rather than tv.

@MiserygutsPetty Because of the temperature. Hot temps and high pressure will **** a Freeview signal without even buying it a drink first.

@SkyHelpTeam Yes I wanted to keep my tv package and landline but was told yesterday if I cancel my broadband I cannot keep my landline as only the freeview channels come through the satellite dish. I am out of contract on my broadband too
