    @d0hertyry4n @TomRafferty4 Yes, sure. Because you’re incapable of answering anything on the subject. You’re not coming at it from a position of knowledge. I mean everyone in the industry acknowledges the Freeview problem doesn’t have a solution. That’s a given. Or can you solve what the experts can’t?

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Ofcom requires public service channels to have slot in the top 24 slots of the channel list. BBC Three must be assigned a top 24 slot within 18 months. Freeview is doing this immediately. Commercial operators have expressed concern that the BBC will swap Three and Four around,

  • garyscott8383 Gary Scott (@garyscott8383) reported

    @Lakeuk @timfarron The BBC adminiser the Freeview network as part of the TV license and that includes the infrastructure

  • PhilNTebb Philip (@PhilNTebb) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Interesting, is that mandated by Freeview or was there a functional incentive to move down the band?

  • BrianMLeahy1 Brian M. Leahy (@BrianMLeahy1) reported

    I have contempt for Freeview which expanded tonight when I switched to the Drama Chanel to watch what I thought would be a new "The Last Detective". True to form Freeview, this incompetent producer of rubbish TV was putting out yet another repeat. Close Freeview Down.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    Odd to give S4C the BBC3 HD slot on Freeview now BBC3 is coming back when they could have had it after 7pm since 2016 (as BBC Scotland does). Not the long term solution though - but seems to be no long term plans at all for HD on @FreeviewTV with another HD mux will close soon.

    @SkyHelpTeam Had no signal for three days now and engineer not coming until Thursday. Frustrating and we don’t have freeview either not what I am paying for

  • mudlarklives Clay Harris 🇪🇺💉💉💉😷 (@mudlarklives) reported

    @OhBlimey Never on before 4pm, rarely on after 10pm. No news or current affairs. Sky Arts (via Freeview) or BBC4 when possible. The soaps basically are just *on*, not heavily invested in.

  • Shakacarnage Gareth Williams (@Shakacarnage) reported

    @woblis Terrible long term customer outlook. If I left for a month and came back, I'd get it for £50 a month. I think we'll go Freeview, like you say, in case we miss something, but I think the last two years has seen a huge change from live to streaming in our household.

  • JustLEAVEeu Just Leave.EU (@JustLEAVEeu) reported

    Just because we’re in a “universal broadcasting bad place”, is not an excuse not to bite the bullet and move to a subscription model to fund the BBC. Yes, some people reliant on Freeview will lose out, that’s life! There are other ways to enjoy life, go 2 the pub, church, mosque
