    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

    @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.

    @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.

    @RupertLowe10 Make it a hybrid. Skeleton service on Freeview funded by adverts, with the option of a subscription for online ad-free and premium content. Basically the way ITV does it.

  • ron__west Ron West (@ron__west) reported

    @Nigel_Farage @reformparty_uk BBC should be subscription, but if it must be also available non-subscription so that old and/or poor can view live national occasions, Parliamentary debates, addresses to nation, etc, then let that be on Freeview with low-resolution VHS-level picture quality and mono sound.
