@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.

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…

My TV has inbuilt Freeview and the signal has been rubbish forever. I tried a cheap Blaupunkt indoor aerial last year but it did nowt (telly is not very near a window.) Is it worth trying something stronger or just keep relying on streaming?

@UBn9ohogz0XOFWP @GBNEWS To watch I need a TV license, a freeview signal or Sky subscription, and an HD TV. I don't have any of those. Oh, and even if I had Sky I would have to pay extra for GB News

@My5_tv Hi folks, seem to be having issues watching the latest episode of Law and Order SVU S20 E8. On selecting it, the episode landing page doesn't load, just a black screen, and then need to reload the player. That's on Freeview Play on two Panasonic boxes. Any ideas?

@Patricia344130 Live TV probably yes. Find lots of ‘old’ repeats, which never had time to watch, are now much more interesting. Thank goodness for Freeview.

@Peter_Fitz Now I only know them as freeview/on demand apps, because my antenna broke 3 years ago and I never bothered to fix it.
