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…

@kronosarm @Steveonstradey @fesshole English regions HD need to be on Freeview, FreeSat and Sky. Plus backups. Plus switching at network junction points. Plus upgrading regional studios to HD (cameras, edit, play out). Massive expense for 28 mins at 6:30 and 3 x 6 min bulletins. That, or quality content?

@BBCThree One word. Shallow. Pandering to 'yoof' never works. To think 3 used to have great science and factual shows. Now look. And cramming it back on has messed up my freeview big time, so thanks for that BBC, never seem to get it right these days. #bbc3

@lastminutelin If you are still experiencing problems you will need to speak to the Freeview helpline as the retune should have been all that was needed. Freeview advice line on 03456 505050

@BazakeMedia @TreborRhurbarb He was watching the game on Freeview and not a subscription service. These people are leeches on society so need to be dissolved in salt.
