    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @virginmedia That £70 being for broadband which is on average about 20Mbps and TiVO box that has less channels than Freeview. The TiVO box is about 5/6 year old and has been crap slow since day one.

  • IBLaughing Ian Bowden (@IBLaughing) reported

    How did Netflix & Chill get to be slang for a hook-up? What about Sky Q & ****? Amazon Prime & ****? Freeview & ****? All4 & ***********? That said, I do identify with Netflix the most. I want a commitment and if they try to leave I send several emails begging them not to.

  • geordiechris48 Chris Johnson (@geordiechris48) reported

    @CourtTVUK Freeview picture breaking up. Seems to be ok on satellite. Are you having problems with Ch 89 or might it be a more localised transmitter problem?

  • lobwinners Michael (@lobwinners) reported

    @SaraelisGarvey Exactly! All of the radio stations are playing slow/sensitive music, 4 of the 5 main tv stations are playing special programming. We have 24 hour news on freeview for this. It’s way too much
