Luke Hayes (@Lukeytoons) reported@TCL_Europe hello, I have a #TCL 55C815 and the freeview play does not work at all even though there is a dedicated remote button. Have any other #TCL owners got this problem?

Julian Radbourne (@JulianRadbourne) reported from Cromer, EnglandI just can't get them on my Talk Talk Freeview box. Any chance you could help as I'd rather watch them on my TV than on my tablet. Thanks.

Matthew H (@Page_888) reported@scott_gamer @CITVPLUS Over in Australia there's a channel on their Freeview service called 10Shake. Apparently it mostly airs content from Nickelodeon and its name has come from the UK. As Viacom now produce "Neighbours" with 10Peach, they're now seemingly sharing names too.

Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reportedYesterday...I gained extra channels and a stronger signal re-connecting wires into the TV and using a new Freeview box/recorder. Today...a couple of channels are breaking up. Lost one together whether I watch on the tuner within the TV or via the new box. 😠

Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported(Existing channels are exempt for this rule though). The green light follows a consultation that took place between November & January. However, only a small number of Freeview Play devices will support these developments: your TV or box needs to support Channel List Management.
