    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

    About a year and a half ago @virginmedia sent out a free Stream Box for showing Freeview programmes because we had their broadband service. Now it seems our package goes from £24/m to £44/m due to Stream TV package being added. #VirginMedia that is underhanded #StreamCancelled

    @JimKarasBoxing I have no boxing business experience, I’ll say that part first. But surely that was the type of fight you sell to a regular freeview tv audience to build up interest/excitement in a fighter for a bigger fight on ppv down the line.

    @lauralexx We were so poor, I used to watch to 10 minute Sky Box Office Freeview of J2J. I've still never actually seen it. Sorry Brendan.

    @toolegs Some of the US MTV style paranormal investigation shows that used to appear on some of the Freeview channels were truly awful.

    @ImTommyHill Freeview TV signal still seems ok here.

    @panchoballard Bizarrely I watched The Kenny Everett Show last night on one of those Freeview channels down the end.

    @MillieMatters @GaryLineker Well it was useful advice. It's not my problem that you decide not to act on it. So, you're not forced to pay a licence fee. You choose to so you can watch Freeview. You have internet on your phone that you can tether to another device btw.

    @Alheri @Channel4 Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. so, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks George.

    @cleanfeed_ttvr Just need Freeview to get another one or more of their multiplexes converted to DVB-T2 to improve capacity and support more HD channels. PSB1 and PSB3 could still remain using DVB-T to provide a basic service to older devices.

    @PugTrev Absolutely bang on. The BBC is not an essential service, and the taxpayer should not be forced to pay for it, just for the privilege of watching Freeview on their own television sets! #DefundTheBBC @RishiSunak
