    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    BBC News HD being taken of Freeview is a major loss. Poor show, @BBC.

  • SimonHardy_74 Simon Hardy (@SimonHardy_74) reported

    @HumaxUK FVP_5000T. Cannot go backwards in the EPG anymore. Players screen often doesn't launch properly, giving me no way into Freeview Play providers. Live TV app doesn't work properly and hasn't been updated in years. Any plans to fix any of this? #humax

  • sparkywebdev sparky (@sparkywebdev) reported

    @GBNEWS My parents are nearly 70. They do not want and will never get the Internet apart from on their phones. Their TV in the bedroom broke but they still use freeview boxes. Try to buy a new 40" TV that doesn't need the internet.. its impossible. Telly really is dead already..

    @h4y44t Babe it appears the maccies is also a literal Freeview - cancel your subscriptions now

  • thedogger31 darren (@thedogger31) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yes I wanted to keep my tv package and landline but was told yesterday if I cancel my broadband I cannot keep my landline as only the freeview channels come through the satellite dish. I am out of contract on my broadband too

  • BobScot48804242 Bob Scott (@BobScot48804242) reported

    @neilbelieves Not seen it, it's on the list though. I remember it being quite controversial at the time here in the UK but I never bothered with it. Now I want to check it out, it's never available on freeview 🙄

  • annie_mel_farm Her Maj, Annie MF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@annie_mel_farm) reported

    Isn't normal TV/Freeview awful? 30+ channels of total crap, every night. What do people watch?

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

  • StevenNT Steven Jones (@StevenNT) reported

    @russty_russ Did the likes of 4-Tel and the regional ITV text services remain? I had Freeview by then so don't recall but recall the 600 pages was the regional ITV text service ?
