    @Sillyshib Heartbeat, ssshhh, it's never been off. You can watch Heartbeat every day on freeview

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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.

  • bulldogbyrne julie byrne (@bulldogbyrne) reported from Hindley, England

    Why do I keep paying for TV service which is shit @BTGroup I get better service on indoor freeview aerial

  • CatSlaveUK Slave2Cats 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@CatSlaveUK) reported from Runcorn, England

    @FreeviewAdvice is Freeview down in Halton ?

  • 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. 👍

  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • recovringlawyer Matt (@recovringlawyer) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, I’m trying to get RTÉ on Freeview in Belfast. I’ve tuned my TV and all the other channels save RTÉ are showing up. I should be in an area that benefits from the RTÉ signal.

  • botvolution Botvolution (@botvolution) reported

    Because I don't have sky or Netflix or prime or any of that **** I'm always about 5 years behind hype TV shows and then only the ones that eventually turn up on Freeview. It's quite restful in a way, I don't get drawn into endless twitter ingroup references. Lovely.

  • ROBMER ROBERT MERCER (@ROBMER) reported

    @grannypatt @TalkingPicsTV I've been having problems with freeview lately so this might explain the situation,i am in the London area.

  • NatJSummers Nat J Summers (@NatJSummers) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Our freeview reception has all@of a sudden started playing up this afternoon (around 4pm), it’s all channels, doesn’t seem to be an issue internally and we don’t have strong weather conditions etc… our postcode is BS20. Is there a general issue?

  • AnthonyEC1 Anthony Davis (@AnthonyEC1) reported

    @DJack_Journo It wasn't just action & adventure films made during the 1950s & '60s that were set during the second world war, but countless comedies too. Dora Bryan & Irene Handl were in many of them as canteen tea ladies or similar. I believe they're still shown on Freeview. Awful tripe.

  • BBCNottingham BBC Radio Nottingham (@BBCNottingham) reported

    Due to technical issues, transmission via 103.8FM may be affected between 12pm and 2pm today. But don't worry! You can still listen to BBC Radio Nottingham online, on Freeview, or by tuning over to DAB 📻 We're sorry for any inconvenience caused.

  • Artemisapphire Tansy Kelly Robson (@Artemisapphire) reported

    @WalkingRichard Trying to get my GenX friend to watch more TV. There is LOADS on Freeview channels you cannot get streaming. Streaming catalogues are horrifically narrow And watching something on a whim when you come across it also expands your exposure to stuff you'd never select on a streamer

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @CallMeThoms @All4 Hi Tom, unfortunately LG and Digital UK were unable to reach an agreement for a Freeview Play device in time for the rollout of LG’s 2020 TV range, and this is why our 2020 models don't support the All4 app. (1/3)

  • BenJohn45874515 Ben Johnson (@BenJohn45874515) reported

    @Mark56623345 Apparently you can watch test transmissions on Freeview. Not sure how though as I've never had Freeview before.

  • MissLionHeart J🇬🇧🇳🇬🦁❤ (@MissLionHeart) reported

    Why is the TV adaptation of Magpie Murders on BritBox? That is absolute horse ****! I want it on Freeview! #ThisMorning
