    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • StefanCtn Stefan C (@StefanCtn) reported

    @FreeviewAU Since Freeview updated to 1.04 our Hisense 65S8 TV no longer allows the default electronic program guide (EPG) button to work. @HisenseAus advised this is a known issue with Freeview to fix. Is there a timeline on getting this resolved?

  • barton_22_ Barton (@barton_22_) reported

    @MiguelDelaney @david_conn It's on Sky, not freeview. Super league was a **** idea, sky, BT, UEFA all need to be seen as what they are, not the good guys

  • JontoKaye1 Jonto Kaye1 (@JontoKaye1) reported

    @shannadelicacy @juliegrizzy I have freeview which has lots of never watch channels but it's free and meets our requirements. I do miss almost all sports/new films but I'm not paying £80 odd per month for them. Prime, Netflix and the rest are a waste of money. They can all get stuffed....

  • Rolo_Tamasi Rolo Tamasi (@Rolo_Tamasi) reported

    @GMB Should we stop giving bad news media Freeview space?

  • jorge_rupes Ian (@jorge_rupes) reported

    @JohnBrownsBod12 @TurboKitty Just to say that there's a concert of Bad Company at Redocks on Sky Arts (Ch. 11 Freeview) today (Sat.) at 5.15pm. Sounds good to me! 🤘😎🤘

  • pifflevalve Jon (@pifflevalve) reported

    @BillyHoward423 For context, Freeview is the 'free' digital tv service, and I only have the box because the tv is so old it can't pick up the signal. Even the box is a supermarket own-brand and cost me £19 in 2013. It runs away scared at the thought of actual technology

  • JenniferChelley Jennifer Quinton Chelley (@JenniferChelley) reported

    @ukfreetv Hi @BBC_HaveYourSay since yesterday 2021-04-24 usually excellent transmitter signal Crystal Palace for TV same address last 21-years SE15 presently Freeview only Now no programmes as all 'poor/no signal'! Help please as watch news 24/7 plus BBC1, 4, Ch4, SkyNews, ITV, Chn10+20

  • StrictlyOsprey Mark Jones (@StrictlyOsprey) reported

    @RuthElleson I think part of the problem is there used to be two Red Button channels on Freeview to cover the two tables. That and the statement BBC4 is no longer for original programming so at least it’s not a repeat!

  • Ooh_Matron Richard Pearmain (@Ooh_Matron) reported

    The Tom Cruise War Of The Worlds is on TV tonight, the blurb on the Freeview listings says it "deals with adult themes" - I've never heard aliens in giant tripods described like that before
