    If we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

    @SoniaPoulton Try RT, you can tell it tells the truth cos Starmer was trying to get it shut down, it's on freeview 234

  • PATVOne1 P.A.T.V. Scunthorpe (@PATVOne1) reported

    @JillStuart17 While it is currently under investigation by Ofcom to decide whether it has broken the impartiality rule, RT still holds a valid licence to broadcast, so cannot be removed by Freeview (or Sky), otherwise they'd be the ones breaking Ofcom's code.

    @DundeeSat My freeview digital tv through an aerial is not working....😬

  • GEORDIEJOHN1982 NUFC1892 (@GEORDIEJOHN1982) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice it is an extremely rare board that I have and these freeview and catch-up apps were already on the board for people to test the apps and develop them for that tv. But the good news is that it is not a problem with freeview play itself. I will let you know what happens today.

  • I_VG Dr Isabelle Vella Gregory (@I_VG) reported

    @KabwePRQ Oh good thanks for this. Have had trouble getting AJ on freeview today dunno why. Dodgy aerial I think. BBC had a brief mention. Nothing from sky.

  • DanniizDesignz Dannii (@DanniizDesignz) reported

    @sianeliza_ Yes the sound is awful. I'm not sure if it is completely ITV or if it is certain companies, as it was only one of us when it happened before, so I'd be interested to know if we are on all the same provider - Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview etc. #ThisMorning

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Sometimes I have to laugh & wonder. BARB (broadcasting audience research board). I'm being asked if I want to be part of the 54,000 households to be asked about a range of issues" Me? One of over a million who lost Freeview for 6 months and had no "broadcasting"... Oh **** yes

  • dhothersall Duncan Hothersall🌹 (@dhothersall) reported

    @hrochfor1 "Freeview Channel 264" is VisionTV, not a Freeview channel at all but an IPTV distribution service. IPTV is accessible anywhere in the world and is not subject to broadcast licences. I already said RT could continue on the web if it lost its licence. Please stop pretending.

    @yacc143 I m referring to the 99.4% mentioned in late 1980s IBA Engineering announcements, and the 98.5% mentioned for Freeview. I do not know the *actual* level of Freeview coverage. It is hard for me to get a signal from my proper transmitter, Wenvoe. I can get Mendip off a knife.

  • ElDonoSuspendo Donald (@ElDonoSuspendo) reported

    @BearryPolaris Yeah my new TV is some sort of gaming monitor. Has a way better picture and the Freeview to watch TV on it with but no smart ****. I wasn't interested I'd rather have a Firestick and I've a mini pc hooked up to my TV too.
