@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.

@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!

@Prof_Nostalgia To restore services. So far nearly 3 weeks on the majority of Teesside still has neither TV or Radio, if Freeview can't/won't invest in ageing infrastructure then it very much is there problem

@DefundBBC I look at #freeview TV schedule a couple of times a week & rarely find anything I want to watch on any of the channels. But I'm an old ***. My son NEVER bothers with the main TV at all. Tablet, pc or phone is where he & his peers view content. #bbc etc take note.

If Freeview channels do get together to launch a joint streaming service, they could have pop-up channels for specific events like on iPlayer. Then if live events like the W Series are delayed, they could be streamed rather than going off air.

@BigBearF1 F me this is actually bloody brilliant. My Grandad has started to lose it. My mrs went round to fix it the other day & he'd pressed the wrong button so it was trying to find freeview. He then did the same again the following day so called out a tv engineer

Good to see the urgency with which @arqiva have restored Freeview to the good people of North Yorkshire. Just the three weeks now without any service.

I swear #skybroadband is down at least every other week... was working fine until now. Wanted to watch something on freeview play but my smart TV runs off WiFi and currently have none. Good luck to my older sister who works remotely/from home with no WiFi shew screwed.
