    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

    @WitherSDL Oh man, what rabbit hole have I gone down. She's a regular in The Sun (tabloid) as a "glamour model" I guess, and this is her 7th engagement and 8th fiance? They were together for 10 months. Just seems like some average British freeview media personality I suppose.

  • Lundavra JMB (@Lundavra) reported

    @thejohnnylowe @riceuten @ArchRose90 Quote some audited figures, all the ones I have seen show they are well behind BBC News and Sky News. Never seen GB News because of its lack of national coverage on Freeview.

    Edinburgh tweeps: Has anyone been experiencing Freeview ITV & Ch4 issues since yesterday's rain shower? Our signal deteriorated the moment the heavens opened yesterday and it's still flaky today. I note no obvious issues on downdetector etc. (though issues were noted yesterday)

    @theoneringnet ..UK has Never had that in our cinemas (that i recall) & Never seen Extended LOTR (or Hobbit) on Any tv or Freeview channel. Sadly we dont get LOTR on any station any more... but older films are repeated ad nauseam weeklly, monthly, yearly...😣😢

  • Irr_Orbit Andrew S.🇪🇺💙#FBPE (@Irr_Orbit) reported

    Can anyone explain to me the point of #ITV4+1 on #Freeview? It never seems to broadcast. Just a waste of bandwidth. #ITV

  • MellyStark Melly Welly (@MellyStark) reported

    anyone else having issues getting #BBC channels on #Freeview tonight... all our others are fine. we're postcode SA65 #asktwitter

  • Eon_Nova Nova Storm 🔜 SOTONFURS (@Eon_Nova) reported

    @kestenan I believe you can own a TV but you only need the License to watch their channels or something stupid. Can use a TV screen for a computer screen if it has no freeview built in. BUT i could be wrong...

  • SimonOxley9 Simon Oxley (@SimonOxley9) reported

    Seems like an interesting time to return to @LutonTown commentary duty at Swansea on Saturday. First visit to Liberty Stadium - never went to the Vetch either. Digital radio and Freeview 720 @BBCSport3CR

  • KityLonglegs Joanne. (@KityLonglegs) reported

    I’m a sky cuntstomer. Just logged in to SkyGo to find something interesting for tomorrow. **** all I’d watch. Why am I paying about £70 a month for shite I could get for free if I just buy an aerial and freeview?

  • pjwilding Paul Wilding ♿️🏳️‍🌈 (@pjwilding) reported

    @Ofcom Already done it. Cancelled Virgin, Cable TV. Now just have Freeview. Cancelled Netflix. I would prefer to cancel the BBC and keep Netflix but that’s not an option, if I want to watch live Ch4. Time to rethink the TV license!
