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…

Why is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

@UKChristmasTV Full listings now on Freeview guide too. I notice that a shopping strand on HobbyMaker has a Closing Down Sale, I guess they may have noticed that there is more demand for content on Sewing Street and Hobby Maker on the channel.

@Dianne1963 @TPTVEncore Hi Dianne, the red button works on TVs that are connected to the internet. If yours is connected to the internet and it still isn't working, please give the Freeview helpline a ring at 03456 505050 and they should be able to advise you further. Thanks for the all the support!

@TPTVEncore @TalkingPicsTV My Freeview CH82 Red Button doesn't work 🙄 but the TV isn't that old and is updated regularly, any clues as to what systems it should work on, please?

@NMBCo @hardistymark Pretty sure East Midlands Today is a standard definition signal slapped into an HD channel. Just got freeview to save money, back to the ol’ ‘High Def not available in your area’ message. If we want to see our news broadcasters in high def, we have to see them down the pub.

@SkyHelpTeam Having trouble with my upstairs Sky box. Sounds coming on but screen is black. Nothing wrong with telly as I can get on Freeview and Netflix etc directly on the TV so it's definitely the Sky box. Any ideas?

The fact is that Neil Oliver is continuing to spout dangerous drivel on a Freeview channel and he has an army of fans and voices and big names willing to back him up. Calling that **** out should not be down to one or two people on twitter and just ignoring it is not an option
