    @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.

  • iainsykes2014 Iain Sykes (@iainsykes2014) reported from Blackburn, England

    @KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

    @fitgeek_uk Hard to say. I stream a fair amount of movies, TV and music, but I also use a lot of physical media (and have freeview) so if/when the internet goes down, I wouldn’t be *without* any of those entertainment options, I’d just have less immediate choice.

    So poor I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • hispanista Hispanista (@hispanista) reported

    @thefish64 @psychpolis Never used them in the U.K. Freeview was enough + NowTV, Netflix and Prime. My fibre broadband was BT.

  • HanMarshyVP Abby the Tank's Wife (@HanMarshyVP) reported

    @EarlFlorkin 1. I don't have a TV licence 2. I don't have HBO or Sky Atlantic 3. I only have an SD Freeview box which is super grainy 4. The only way I can watch it is it my friend illegally downloads it for me, which is obviously a bad thing

  • Ondarian_ASMR Ondarian ASMR - (He/Him) 👈🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇺🇳 (@Ondarian_ASMR) reported

    @bluebellchoppy He was on TV over Christmas, apparently he's a TV cook now on Food Network on Freeview/Sky.

  • CatIpswich Toby the Cat (Ipswich) (@CatIpswich) reported

    @last_of_england I never knew what to think of the film. It left me feeling quite depressed. If they screen it on Freeview, I'll give it a try.

  • digibell Christopher Bell (@digibell) reported from Bognor Regis, England
