  • Oliver_Wok wok (@Oliver_Wok) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @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

  • AddingRandomWit Adam Widdrington (@AddingRandomWit) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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.

    @ThatsTVGold Looking forward to this cant get the manchester version signal too weak.this has appeared on my freeview tv.will it be music or entertainment.or both.

  • kiwiwalrus Keryn Knight (@kiwiwalrus) reported

    Why is @TVNZ making it harder for kiwis to access their content? Why split your on demand content from freeview and require people to have yet another app and login? Are you planning on charging for it? Or do you just enjoy causing inconvenience? @TVNZondemand

    @merseytart @MrsSimonTemplar Broadband here at my mum’s went down earlier today. I have no idea at all how to navigate her complex system of Freeview tv with no aerial attached to Freeview+ recorder with aerial that appears to supply her tv with pictures. With her Roku stick and Echo down, I sat in silence.

    @calexico65 Where I am there was always a poor signal back in the day. I remember my dad had a 500ft high aerial nailed to the side of the house at one point. Now it’s on Freeview but tbh I never watch it. In my defence I rarely watch NI News either.

    @mitsyarty In these days of on-demand TV who still watches adverts? We keep being told how hard done by anyone who isn't white is, maybe the advertisers think they are the only ones so poor they can only afford Freeview?

  • DearPerdita Dear Perdita (@DearPerdita) reported

    @GBNEWS The freeview signal isn’t strong enough in our area, will you be getting a firestick app so it can be watched it that way?

  • nhs_groverhaus Spooks Malloy (@nhs_groverhaus) reported

    @LamentablyAwake @BierStarmer @BareLeft This is the problem though, a Unite channel will just be all the same people but now on freeview for some reason.

  • CWiddowfield_61 Chris Widdowfield (@CWiddowfield_61) reported

    I appear to have lost my #Freeview HD channels from #OliversMount here in #Scarborough. Anyone else have the same issues?

  • GeoffreyATuck Give A F**k (@GeoffreyATuck) reported

    @jontutoring @MichelleDewbs Volume no problem on Sky but on Freeview it needs to be cranked up

  • James_J_Marlow James Marlow ג’יימס מרלו (@James_J_Marlow) reported

    @JakeWSimons Was taken off British freeview TV a few years ago. Surprised it was still available in the US. Can think of at least one other network that should also be removed from standard freeview in the UK.
