    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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    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

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

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

  • 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.

  • JackyCwiero Jacky Cwiero (@JackyCwiero) reported

    @KEdge23 Obviously there are some technical issues, the sound for one is pretty diabolical (watching on Freeview 236) have to turn the TV volume right up.

  • WrecklessGamer Booker Dewitt 🌸 (@WrecklessGamer) reported

    .@GBNEWS are you hoping to get an HD channel on Freeview? Would definitely help 👍

  • andyfalc Captain Andy ن (@andyfalc) reported

    @GBNEWS I'm really frustrated with the quality of sound on your output. It's crap! I watch on Freeview and the general audio is so quiet I have to double my usual TV volume and then many of your contributor's microphones are even worse. It is unwatchable, can you not sort it out?

  • IrkthePurists Mike Scott (@IrkthePurists) reported

    @braintree_ Apparently it’s going out in HD somewhere, but the quality on freeview is shockingly bad.

  • Ne3Steve SteveNE3 (@Ne3Steve) reported

    I still have @gbnews on in the living room and my desktop monitor has freeview built in (with an aerial) so I can easily switch over with that too Yes they're having sh1t loads of technical issues, I feel sorry for them a bit but they will iron out quickly and it's live

  • markvonrichards Marko Von Richards🤡 (@markvonrichards) reported

    On a freeview HD channel. Just what kind of idiot buys from them to justify the waste of broadcast spectrum?

  • JonNFarmer Jon (@JonNFarmer) reported

    The sound quality on @GBNEWS is awful on Freeview

  • ForRossiya Sustainability (@ForRossiya) reported

    @GBNEWS The FREEVIEW channel makes the internet circa 1994 look Hi-Def in comparison. Garbage content, garbage bit-rate, garbage channel.

  • MatthewKing35 Matthew King (@MatthewKing35) reported
