  • 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

  • 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.

    RANDOM Q: POP is the kids channel available on Freeview. When I was young POP had absolute trash kids shows. All the a-list shows were on Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Fox Kids & Disney. I decided to have a look this evening. They have Dragonball Pokémon & Power Rangers 😮

    @afneil @GBNEWS The channel is too much of the same for my liking. Good to see you on TV again but your signal isn't strong enough for me to get it on Freeview

  • the_FLT Fergus Llewelyn Turtle 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@the_FLT) reported

    The big exception of course is big sports but that's a little different to normal programming. Even there, cricket viewing has dwindled from lack of major (and Freeview) network coverage.

  • Mark_Ma77 Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Mark_Ma77) reported

    @MSwift94 Honestly think a better solution to get people into cricket (I presume this is what it's for) would be to just put more normal cricket and more t20 cricket on freeview telly.

    @sophielouisecc HD on freeview, the current SD quality is crap.

    @jlf0404 👋I'm not around #CourtTV's tweets anymore, Jan. I'm not on the channel. Period. Not after their owners' awful treatment of British viewers. From 1st June they took themselves off #Freeview. It put me off them, and off the whole US court thing. It just wasn't the same for me😕

  • StevenNT Steven Jones (@StevenNT) reported

    @russty_russ I'm guessing Pre-DSO Freeview and the Internet sowed their demise as fewer and fewer people looked at their analogue service as time progressed?

  • Ronagig Ro "there are four lights" (@Ronagig) reported

    @K_Flynny369 Can't get it tuned in on Freeview, signal not good enough 🙄 Enjoy it for me
