  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @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.

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

  • garethrichmond5 Gareth Richmond (@garethrichmond5) reported from Bury, England

    If anyone needs a football fix Copenhagen are playing some other Danish club behind closed doors on Freeview 64...... is this what it’s come to😂

  • janner_geek Janner Geek - 3.5% #GTTO #FreePalestine 🇵🇸 🇬🇷 (@janner_geek) reported

    Did anyone else's Freeview box automatically record the "Prime Minister's" address earlier? I didn't ask for that **** to sully my telly box, thanks very much! #BorisMustGo #ToriesOut

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice We've been here a million times Freeview, don't need you to check on coverage when I can tell you I HAVEN'T GOT ANY SIGNAL ie NO COVERAGE. There is no "data protection" policy on display so don't know what nameless "bot" I'm handing over personal data so no house number TS269AS

  • stormcab stormcab (@stormcab) reported

    @Hrawli @cowell64807 I got rid of cable/satellite TV few years back. Was ridiculous paying £30 extra a month for what you get for free with Freeview. Sky wanted to put a dish in part of the building that would look horrible. I pay £32 a month for internet & a phone line rental.

    @soapachu The fact that they're hogging valuable bandwidth on Freeview will never not infuriate me. In a saner world they'd not exist and Talking Pictures would have the budget and spectrum space to go HD.

  • delphi35 jane💙 (@delphi35) reported

    In other news, tracked down channels 1 to 10 on the freeview box last night. It does, unfortunately require structural support for the aerial, but ya know, #skillz

  • dynotic Sean Thompson (@dynotic) reported

    @NippyByName Be Careful it’s not a crap massive freeview box type of thing that’s totally restrictedwith what you can do.

  • Taffyagent Cathryn Summerhayes (@Taffyagent) reported

    @benpester Now this is a heartbreaking one because a) we were booked to go to singalong on Monday and had to cancel b) you can’t freeview it anywhere - I have paid but it means you can’t keep watching on repeat #nocheesesforusmeeces

  • Carti_Mandua LadyAnniSpice... #IStandWithIsrael 🔯🕎✡️🇮🇱 (@Carti_Mandua) reported

    @Matronincharge @DominicRaab @thetimes Sorry but thats a terrible thing to say to someone whose family survived the holocaust .... you need to watch the programmes on Freeview and take that back

  • EnufAd ad enuf (@EnufAd) reported

    @BorisJohnson When you say behind bars….do you mean a nice comfy, carpeted en-suite room with freeview TV, 3 meals a day and human rights protections that exceed those of normal law abiding citizens….sounds terrible
