    So I have a freeview tv in the Scarbados house, but now way to record programmes. Tonight I had to choose between Autumnwatch and the Repair Shop. I have never had such a middle aged dilemma! 😩

    @laingo80 I know. It’s pretty bad for films. I’m at my moms who has freeview and there’s nothing on so I’m scrolling through Netflix trying to find stuff

  • Kenny_Onions Kenny Onions (@Kenny_Onions) reported

    @Allllright Channel 5 started in 1997. Cable was never a thing, we have about 80 Freeview channels now but it's 90% crap. You can't get proper Sky with a dish, they have a VOD kption but it's expensive.

    @GeekCliche If Sky continue to advertise on GB News, why not switch to BT? I’d suggest Virgin but they’re a greedy company with bad ethics. You may also want to get a Freesat box for another room in your house for free channels not available on Freeview!

    Our accommodation has only got #Freeview. I’m beginning to have genuine sympathy for poor people.

    @rjohnsykes @GBNEWS I was able to receive in BT53 to begin, but now nothing on Channel 236....defaults to Sky 233. Freeview told me defo being broadcast on likely NI transmitters. Didnt offer solution though

  • luke0586 Luke Clarke (@luke0586) reported

    @skytv @SkyHelpTeam it’s always confused me that if you pay Sky for their TV service using their equipment and dishes, you still have to pay for a separate licence… surely this should be included in your billing as they are providing the service… #TVLicence #Sky #Freeview

    @ClareToHere Turn over to Celebrity Goggle Box on channel 47 on Freeview, it's making us laugh a lot tonight! 'Those' days can be awful buggers. Sending hugs to you xx 🥸🤪

  • Liberalsnowfl19 Blackbeard 🏴‍☠️🍻 (@Liberalsnowfl19) reported

    @BillySarstard @vwgti80 @DJBURNS_was I see no issue. If you dont want to fund freeview then don't get a tv licence. You get what you pay for

  • u0421793 Ian K Tindale (@u0421793) reported from East Ham, England

    The Good, the Bad and The Ugly is just starting now on Paramount network freeview 32
