    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

    @tomhfh cool, wont have to remember how to tune / find a freeview channel 👍 protip - we want something like sky news australia not more of the same sky / bbc garbage

  • DarthElliot . (@DarthElliot) reported

    @Cuppa378 It’s free because they’re contractually obligated to provide it for freeview. As they were happy to show the EL final in full resolution on YouTube 3 days back, not doing the same for the CL as the more important competition is pathetic.

  • little_mavis Mary Wombat 🐝💙 (@little_mavis) reported

    Right. I'm going to pretend all this **** isn't happening foe a bit. Anything good on the (Freeview) telly tonight?

  • Leemackie mucker (@Leemackie) reported from Moulton, England

    Help please Freeview tv. I have accidentally deleted BBC1 from the listing on my TV and I have know idea how to re add it. Techwood tv

  • 10agapanthus Pamela Murray (@10agapanthus) reported

    @DrSpock_PhD Not for me. I shall be watching "Warship: life at sea" on the Paramount Network on Freeview.

  • AndrewCLeach Andrew C Leach (@AndrewCLeach) reported

    @afneil Will you have subtitles? I watched the trailer on Freeview. No subtitles, and the signal didn't cater for them ("Feature not available with current signal"). Disappointed.

    @gregorybelton @BiscuitHalf @Reachingbroom The BBC licence fee supports the Freeview platform - no BBC and Channel 4 (the commercial side of public service broadcasting) - no Freeview. :There's no such thing as a free lunch'.

  • Nick72507205 Nick 💙 (@Nick72507205) reported

    @JulieCourtTV Hi Julie, its saying over here in the UK that Court TV on Freeview Ch89 - This service has now closed. Just wondered if you know anything as there are still the channel listings, but no service. Kind regards, Nick.

  • nicholasclark13 Nicholas Clark (@nicholasclark13) reported

    @FreeviewTV any sign of a Freeview streaming stick? Would make so much sense for poor signal areas or houses with thick walls!
