    @tcm TCM have been almost invisible in the UK as tiny TALKING MOVIES channel goes from strength to strength on FREEVIEW UK. You will never know how many classic movies we have watched since 2018.

    Main server restart due to everyone having a melt down over a freeview channel on such a service. Sorry in advanced... but still 3-0 🙌🏻

  • KieronPearce Kieron (@KieronPearce) reported

    @stephen_latham @itvfootball Itv4 HD on Virgin is only on highest TV tier only which we don't have. Freeview 26 is standard def itv4 which looks like **** on a 4k TV. (I think it's 576p resolution)

    @HisenseGlobal I have just bought a Hisense smart tv. Was told by the shop it has freeview. However, it’s freeview plus which seems to mean I can only watch tv through the individual channel apps and not able to get a tv listings of all channels to scroll through. Can you help?

    Anon: I'm sorry, mum and dad. The shelf in the living room didn't fall down because of dad's shoddy work or mum putting too many figurines on it. I hated them watching me while I was trying to enjoy the 10 minutes freeview so I pulled the shelf down. Sorry about the 20 year …

    @guardiannews Is the BBC not primarily for the lower socio economic viewer anyway? or rather shouldn't it be? If you are rich then you can afford sky, netflix, disney plus, hulu, hbo, prime video and so on if you are poor then all you have is the bbc and all the freeview channels.

    @TalkingPicsTV Best channel on TV.Hopefully it never loses its slot on Freeview like a couple of other much missed channels.

  • wjosh1996 Josh (@wjosh1996) reported

  • espanswick Ellie (@espanswick) reported

    @lottyburns We have Freesat as the signal for terrestrial Freeview at our house has never worked so need the dish but we don’t have and subscription TV so apart from initially paying for the Freesat Recorder box it costs nothing.
