    @LuckyCedarlane @BBCAMERICA @ITV @itv2 @Channel4 @channel5_tv C5 is awful. All this is freeview too!

    @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.

    Aside, imho the effort here to give them their own show vs. Doing the same for the (much larger) Asian populations implicitly shows whites (+other groups) don't think they are capable without help (contra the scores of Asian channels on freeview).

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi there. I know this is not your issue but someone i know wants to get RTE Irish tv in northern ireland but only a couple of channels are coming through. What can she do to pick them all up? Are some Irish channels on UK Freeview also?

    @amazonfiretv Just done an update. Now my tv is stuck on Home Screen. Can’t watch freeview tv, change input. Can only watch Netflix prime and Disney. No freeview no PlayStation. Help.

    @SKAerials According to Freeview its a transmitter issue. Picking up signals from 2! Oh well. Might think about Freesat or just put up with it

    @NickBuckleyMBE @DefundBBC Totally agree. I've been saying this for years. Unlike other people who suggest turning it into a subscription service, I say just force them to show commercials instead like all the other channels on Freeview.

    2 days lost so far waiting for @bt_uk to turn up for an appointment to fix phone and broadband. 10 days with no service and different excuses each time. It's the hope that does you :) never thought I would be thankful for freeview.
