@Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

@mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

@Gbeebies If you're watching on Freeview the picture quality is likely down to most streams on the commercial multiplexes being transmitted at 544x576 then stretched to 16x9 to keep bandwidth down (thus sell more channel slots). This is down to the multiplex operator, not the channels.

@eddie19666 McCoy asking people to grow up and stop sending in rude names is going to be the highlight of the channel when it inevitably goes off Freeview and becomes PPV on YouTube

@sandieshoes We would be happy to. Cancel our Sky subscription and watch it on Freeview / subscription. Likewise we subscribe to Amazon Prime, Netflix, don't give it a 2nd thought. Good VFM.

@TaniaWren @GBNEWS @Specsavers It's on 216 on Freeview. I have watched it a few times. Not bad just a bit of a dark studio. Could do with brightening up a bit!

@GBNEWS I am having trouble getting GBNews. I dont have sky or any of the other channels so I tried freeview via my phone. However on its home page what's on page GBNews didnt feature and when I searched it came up with no results. I also put on the channel number, still nothing.

@davidericstan @johnredwood Our Freeview signal is pretty poor for most channels, but GBNews is unwatchable. I now stream it from the app to the tv and have no problem with picture quality or sound... that’s providing you have an iPhone and Apple TV. I don’t know about other devices.

What’s all this fuss about regarding @GBNEWS Only problem I found when watching on Freeview was the sound.
