@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@edgarwright @broccantyzack @itv2 Would make for a brilliant friday/saturday/sunday triple header. Would love to break it down into how many times a year they appear on freeview TV

@NickPye10 @GBNEWS Could do with an HD version on freeview, apart from that and the to be expected teething issues it’s ok

@FraserNelson The picture quality on Freeview is like watching tv 30 years ago. It’s utterly crap. Oh well back to BBC news HD.

@Patricia344130 For me, 1) Image seems a bit grainy on Freeview, isn't it in HD. 2) a few sound issues. 3) don't like the dark set used by @afneil it just looked very dated / amateurish. But it's the content that matters and so far so good. The teething issues will get sorted.

Trying to watch GB news on freeview, but it looks very poor quality photography even taking into account it is SD.

@GBNEWS The set is way too dark, sound needs improving. The picture on Freeview C.236 is awful. Will still watch though, anything but BBC and GMB.

@GBNEWS I just tried 515 on Sky and it's an HD channel, which means I, as a satellite dish customer, have to pay extra for. Tried retuning the freeview channels and there was no 216. Conspiracy theory anyone?

Dear @GBNEWS Been reading about your new tv station with @danwootton & some bad George Best tribute act Could you please sign Eamonn Holmes, Nigel Farage, David Icke, Lee Hurst, get a 20-year deal for Mrs Brown's Boys, and put it on Freeview 200+ where no one will ever see it?

@GBNEWS My old VHSs are better quality than your freeview channel. Have you considered upgrading to their SD service?

@GBNEWS Dreadful picture on freeview, near complete collapse of digital signal. Sky picture good. One urgent improvement needed for the hard of hearing - subtitles! Maybe a ticker tape line running across the top of the screen?
