  • 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.

  • Bluebird0309 CllrJillHoulbrook (@Bluebird0309) reported from Chester, England

    I have 100 freeview channels on my tv. Tonight they are all showing utter crap.

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • Toffeewolfie Philip whitehurst (@Toffeewolfie) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

    The Freeview TV Guide ; who are the pig ignorant uneducated slobs who write this garbage, too many spelling mistakes, too many grammatical errors and incredibly inaccurate facts, for example, 25,000 miles of trenches in WW1, there were less than 1,000 in fact, plus lots more

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    Is it me or is the picture quality on BBC SD channels extremely poor? (Freeview) SD just shouldn't look this bad!

  • _natmo Lady Brown Weasel (@_natmo) reported

    @Michael92292097 Never watched it as have netflix, prime and freeview

  • artefactual_KW Katy Whitaker (she/her) (@artefactual_KW) reported

    Pretty terrible bit of Sherlockiana on freeview 68 just now @LadyLiminal1 !

  • Happyintelect Eyetothesky (@Happyintelect) reported

    Benny Hill's back on UK #Freeview I'm not offended by him, and it's nothing to do with being 'woke', but just don't find him funny. It's bad enough having his alter-ego Boris Johnson squatting at Westminster. He also performs long, boring & unfunny comedy skits, just like Hill.

  • SRL_82 Simon Lumley™ 🇬🇧 (@SRL_82) reported

    @3DMarkB @Classicbritcom Channel 91 (Great TV channel) on standard Freeview service.

  • loonylaura Laura Cox (@loonylaura) reported

    @Robynnnnnnnn @Lauzzadoll1 I'd seen her name in the listings on my Freeview box, but never her picture or anything. I like her, though.

  • jpc101 James Cooper (@jpc101) reported

    At 3pm on ‘Great Movies’ (ch 33 on Freeview) today it’s ‘A Puppy for Christmas’. It’s one of those Xmas movies that are “so bad they’re good”!!! Cheesetastic would be another word for it.

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @Danny_Acklam @StarTrek When I'm guessing is march 2022 at earliest in the new Paramount plus streaming service. I would say if we put enough pressure on they might put it @paramountnet_uk on Freeview for now until streaming is available.

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @a516digital From what I've seen of local TV while staying in York this trash needs booting down to the end of the Freeview guide to a 9x position. Sky Arts is far more deserving of that position if BBC 3 can't have it.
