@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…

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.

@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.

@Scotsterahoy @STVNews Stv don't have the money to cover Annan v Kelty never mind 🏴 games. That is the bottom line. Scotland games on terrestrial tv outside a major game in the later stages of a tournament are over. Not a cheerleader for Sky but they did put the vital Serbia Euro tie on freeview.

@arqiva One of my TV’s will see some of the multiplexes… The freeview box connected to the same socket wll see some of the same channels, but not all… my other TV will see about 16 channels (none of the main ones)… Feels like the signal power is nothing like what it was before…

@presentinglee I’m sorry to trouble you, but how can I get Freeview tv on my TSV I received today. I can only seem to get Pluto TV not the true Freeview. Obviously I have BBC, ITV, More 4 and My5, but I was hoping to get the standard Freeview channels x

@RealBlackIrish @uncanted The current ITV issue is likely a consequence of digital terrestrial infrastructure being held together with bubblegum and hope, since it's only effecting Freeview. I don't think there's a huge conspiracy to normalise the loss of Tipping Point repeats for an afternoon.

(Since 25th September, Channel 4's Freeview services have been running at lower bitrates on all other transmitters in the country, following the Red Bee Media incident.)
