    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

    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.

    @itvhub Why can’t we watch live tv please? Relegated to 8 bit graphics on “normal” tv because the freeview signal is so bad.

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi we've got no signal and very few channels that work on our Freeview TV. We've retuned it lots of times and each time we get fewer channels. Now the TV channels don't work at all. We are in the SO area if that helps

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    @Fi_Me1 I'm a cheapskate, I pay the cheapest Netflix. But that is good for Sky. Couldn't do that here - would confuse the OH - he still hasn't worked out how to watch Prime or Netflix, so he's still watching the dull repeat awful movies on Freeview!

    @mark_simpson @jamesrhamilton @floongle Sorry to interrupt, but I was scratching my head for ages when I got my Samsung 4K TV. Apparently they reckon it's a feature for "upscaling" SD pictures on the built-in Freeview tuner.,without realising it makes some SD channels look even more bad than they normally are.

    @dramachannel It'd be more entertaining if Freeview would provide the channel with a decent signal!😠

    @DetroitBORG Last time I checked, there’s no way to watch live tv channels? Seems like a missed opportunity to get people using Apple TV. Every Freeview PVR box I’ve had has been crap, the Virgin / TiVo box was good - just too expensive.
