@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.

@GiNgEr_JaMeS Plus, it's a model that would remove BBC services from Freeview, a service used by... the elderly people with limited income that Dorries is claiming to be protecting.

@LBC It's the 21st century, if we are to be forced to pay the BBC so that we can watch 'Freeview' TV or any other tv for that matter, it should only be a news & education, perhaps local radio service. It should be at most half the cost of a weeks unemployment benefit (£40 ish?).

@brownboots23 @stevehemsley @NadineDorries So how do we provide such things as disability programming, Welsh language broadcasting, maintain the Freeview transmitter network (used largely by the elderly and poor) and provide educational resources? These don’t generate profit. Ready when you are.

@MattWWoolwich The BBC is already garbage, as is most of Freeview.

@mrjamesob The entire freeview system, built and maintained by the BBC. The radio we listen to all over the world, Parts of the emergency broadcast system. The massive international footprint made by the BBC, creating huge goodwill for Britian. All destroyed because of these petulant liars.

@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries There's plenty of companies out there. I see ads on some channels that aren't shown on ITV or Channel 4 or 5. Personally I'm for a hybrid model; ads on a skeleton Freeview service, with option of a paid sub on iPlayer for Premium and ad-free catch-up content.

@williambecket @NadineDorries The cheapest Sky package I can find is £26 (which includes the "tax"-payer funded freeview service). Letting the BBC go commercial would mean that pensioners would save £13 a month but they wouldn't get any TV for that. So in effect you'd be doubling the cost for pensioners!

If the govt wants costs to be paid for pensioners and the unemployed, put it in general taxation. So most people will still have to pay for it, but won't be able to moan about it being poor value for money. Also would preserve Freeview and radio, which are apparently popular.

@Florenc00526929 We only have freeview but the TV transmitter burnt down Aug 21 and now the signal is very sketchy not due to be replaced until Aug 23 😒

@In4ThePips @NadineDorries The fact that we think disabled people deserve good programming, children deserve good educational resources, the poor deserve Freeview etc etc? Some of us do anyway.
