    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

    @Asher_Wolf Oh hell. The nz freeview did this and its had a huge impact on my dotty old aspergers auntie. The tv app logs out occasionally, usually at an UI refresh and then she'll once again have no access to news and weather until whānau drive to her city to fix it.

    @virginmedia Really? I hadn't considered that. My issue isn't my services being cut its the fact you make Freeview unwatchable it's a shits trick and is nothing but spite it's not like it goes away after 5 minutes I have to record what I want to watch to avoid the bloody thing

  • misspallen Polly Allen (@misspallen) reported

    @speshmagiclady I wish we had foreign language TV on Freeview to help people get over their apathy around other languages - British people would be much more engaged with learning if the words were passively around them and they could just dip into watching a telenovela or something.

  • briavelsjon Jon Pitts (@briavelsjon) reported

    @softwarescotty Fair enough, but your underlying issue is Freeview reception in that case!

  • TonyJWells TJ is not hiking (@TonyJWells) reported

    @smolrobots Fires up the Roku. So probably 60 seconds behind the freeview signal.

  • terencegarner terence garner (@terencegarner) reported

    @GBNEWS @afneil I can't get Freeview only Sky and I've never heard of YouView.

  • liarpoliticians Liarpoliticians, UK has rogue Parliament+police (@liarpoliticians) reported

    @GBNEWS Still not in (awful) SD or HD on satellite, but is on Freeview (in awful SD). Don't be like @SkyNews as the only news outlet not in FTA HD. #GBNews

  • quinn_rori ÉimíQuinn (@quinn_rori) reported

    So after 6 years I thought I'd come back to #skytv only to find out there are more access to channels on #freeview wow what a let down. Paying this package cost every month is gonna be a bitter blow. #scam

  • QueerWrestling Davey🏳️‍🌈 (@QueerWrestling) reported

    @manizhkin @Iightuptheroom They dropped the junior eurovision like a bad habit after 3 years. Channel 4, I could see being a good alternatively. Even Sky, to an extent. Who have the option of putting it one of their freeview channels to get around the restriction of non sky subscribers.

    @TalkingPicsTV Only been watching about 4/5 years since we got Freesat we had terrible Freeview reception, we could only get about 8 channels & Talking Pictures wasn't one of them 😭
