    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

    @chomper_TC @CodsyBear We do struggle to find stuff on Netflix these days - even alot of their « new » shows have already been on Freeview. Trouble with Amazon is there is alot of stuff without subtitles and we need those much of the time 🙄

    @skytv @TalkTV Why is the picture and sound glitchy on TalkTv. The picture quality is great but it's just not playing correctly. Note... Rest of my channels are fine even CNN which in bad weather disappears 1st. Also freeview is working fine... Thank you.

    @HumaxUK Why are @BBCiPlayer programmes not loading and playing on Freeview?? Been down for a few days now…

  • Happytoberight Need to Know (@Happytoberight) reported

    @canadiancarol1 Returned your freeview tv and watch @talkTV channel 237 starting 25th April. @GBNEWS will have to rethink its crap news. As for the rest don't watch them either.

    @DimensionsInJen I fully agree but I also wonder if it would help if those who watched or recorded on Freeview/satellite/cable shouldn't also stream it via the iPlayer to ensure it counts. You don't need to watch again, mute the tab and let it run. That's what I'm doing to ensure my view counts.
