    @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.

  • 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 😂

    The Sony Movies channels on Freeview have been renamed e.g. “Great! movies action” and it looks **** in the TV guide. I’m quite annoyed. Being quite annoyed is more serious because gay

    @softwarescotty (Original reply now corrected). That's fair enough, and unfortunate for sure. But surely if Freeview doesn't cover you, the solution might be Freesat instead?

    GB News look and sound, which has just gone live on Freeview and YouView channels 236. If you can’t see it there, you may need to retune your TV. This guide will help.

    @TeamGBicehockey Oh dear I can't watch it cause freeview isn't working on bt again terrible channel

  • eugenespeed2 Barry Wilson (@eugenespeed2) reported

    Can you get battery powered freeview TVs? I don't mean rechargeable batteries, but ones where you stick a few AAs in? I had an analogue one but never seen a digital version. I'm not getting much luck with Google. All I'm finding is plug or rechargable powered.

  • DarrenHindle1 Darren Hindle (@DarrenHindle1) reported

    @virginmedia Really? I hadn't considered that. My issue isn't my services being cut its the fact you make Freeview unwatchable it's a shits trick and is nothing but spite it's not like it goes away after 5 minutes I have to record what I want to watch to avoid the bloody thing

  • IMTobybrown Toby Brown (@IMTobybrown) reported

    @lbc the bbc Is a good thing if it needs a new funding model it should be general taxation like every other public service. Subscription won't work because of freeview and also the radio networks can't go on subscription either

  • CEEGEE12 Carole Geddes (@CEEGEE12) reported

    @Oldbird19 We don't have the full service for freeview in my area so can't check with anyone locally

  • JonnieIlly J spennz (@JonnieIlly) reported

    @GBNEWS I have found your signal on Freeview but not Freesat. I understand it should be 216. Is this correct and if it is, when will the signal broadcast to find. Cheers.

    Scrubs and Gilmore Girls. And One Tree Hill. The shows I loved as a teenager (we had analogue to I was 14, then freeview, dial up internet to a similar age, then very poor broadband. It took like x3 the length of a video on YouTube to load. No data pick up & almost no signal).
