    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    @SatonmyButt @freesat_tv I pay 2.49 a month to remove ITV adverts. My Tv signal doesn’t work well enough for freeview anymore. It’s well worth it! Plus there is UKTV app with drama yesterday and Dave freeview channels (free but adverts)

    @twodoorgeorge @SkyNews Are actually saying we're not being forced to pay this? If you have sky, virgin, bt, freeview or freesat you are forced to pay it. **** labour I hope they are never elected.

    Part 2 of #TheLabourFiles now! Freeview 235 Al Jazeera. It’s painful watching footage of @jeremycorbyn being bullied & mobbed again. But @andrewfeinstein is great, condemning REAL,vile antisemitism & showing the dishonesty of labelling mere support for Palestinians as that.

    @FrancisAShailes Hi Francis, I am so very sorry Freeview do not currently offer a service for computer or laptops via the web browser. To access content we would recommend you use the broadcasters websites such as BBC iplayer, ITV Hub, All4, MY 5, UKTV Play and Together TV via your PC.

    Abolish TV Tax, that's £13 per month into poor peoples' hands and there is plenty on Freeview. No excuse for Today and Sport presenters being made BBC millionairres #bbcaq

  • linktonian Iain Mackinnon (@linktonian) reported

    @noiseresearch My Dad used to call TV "chewing gum for the brain" I am watching less and less of it these days and have cut my Sky subscription down to the bare bones ( we get a very limited Freeview service of a handful of channels and there are signal issues in our area)

  • mellonfactory Rob Fawcett (@mellonfactory) reported

    @Frasier67Blank @mat8iou @AvaSantina I'd have guessed you could require an encryption key to demux it, but never dug that deep! My only geeky tech involvement was due to national radio controllers complaining about the Freeview graphic colour palette because it wasn’t absolutely compliant with their branding 🙄

  • CAJBuckland Charles Buckland (@CAJBuckland) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I was watching Challenge TV on Thursday evening on my TV with built-in Freeview. When I went to watch the same channel yesterday, a message “service is not running” appeared. Why has it been withdrawn without notice?

  • McHaggis69 McHaggis69 (@McHaggis69) reported

    @tweethue For info, right now i cant get any external source to work. My freeview box or nvidia shield. Huesync reporting ‘no signal detected’ on both. 😡 Before u ask im using hi end 8k new hdmi cables for everything

  • christie_rudd Chris/Christie/Chrissy❤️ (@christie_rudd) reported

    @LauraRebeccaa @tvshows_addict1 @KCoubrough17 I'm watching it all again to get proper sense on seasons I haven't been able to see. Season 16&17 are on Freeview with ads but too many and then season 23 I found on Hulu got rid of that app because it was stupid amounts of ads every 2 seconds
