    @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.

    @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

    @Freely_tv is there a way of forcing my freely TV to get all freeview channels through the aerial? My internet is down now I can't watch most channels. Doesn't seem right.

    @ThatsTVOfficial Excuse me but a LOT of freeview viewers are not getting your channels and a response would be very considerate so cmon guys dont be rude we just want to know whats going on please?

  • algingersmith Alan C. Smith (@algingersmith) reported

    @blackplastic8 @AdrianFaiers Tech issues make it almost impossible. Charter means progs have to be accessible to all. Millions don't even have connected tv's or internet access. You'd have to dump the Charter. Or provide free Freeview boxes to millions. Cost prohibitive. #r4today

  • mattdoctorwho74 Matt 💙 (@mattdoctorwho74) reported

  • simon_yarnall SIMON YARNALL (@simon_yarnall) reported

    @ThatsTVOfficial I have messaged freeview for an update and this is what I was told Sorry to hear about the missing channels, there appears to be a technical issue at the broadcaster’s end, and they are currently working toward a fix. Hopefully the channel will be back on soon as possible.
