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

    @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.

  • DyslebrityDawg Raulstrebo aka Don-Paul ap Arfon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@DyslebrityDawg) reported

    @Seraph7th I have only ever seen a couple of minutes of Dog Soldiers. It was on a freeview channel a few months ago. Low budget British horror movie, no thank you. I still harbour 'issues' with low budget British film producers, they didn't want my screenplays, except James Atherton LOL

  • GerardNeeson I'm immortal!!! (@GerardNeeson) reported

    @MeidasTouch If that is the case, then thank fk virgin media took CNN of our freeview network so we can't watch it anymore!!!!!

  • FilmConnolly Phil(ip) Connolly (@FilmConnolly) reported from Eastbourne, England

    @MrAbelMagwitch A lot of University students also have access to "Box of Broadcasts" an online catchup service which can show tv programs from all the main freeview channels... they can stream BBC content on without needing a TV license.

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @TPTVEncore The new Freeview service is superb. Thanks. Interestingly, on my new Samsung TV the Encore prompt is on even during ad breaks. There's no way to get rid of it. It doesn't show at all on my Humax Freeview Play box yet works fine.

  • timbirds1 Tim Salisbury (@timbirds1) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Watched it on Freeview , as the Sky , not working.

  • Bickiebeej beej (@Bickiebeej) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV hi, We have a brand new TV, Internet and freeview but we get as far as pressing OK to watch something then a blank screen, with the red button service. Are we not doing something obvious maybe?

  • maverickladys Wilameana (@maverickladys) reported

    @BorisJohnson How wonderful, how about sorting out the signal for our ancient techno, TV, can’t get a signal for Freeview & have had to have Sky for years despite new digi aerials & boosters & still have to pay for TV Licence!

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @LeafNetSco @cordbusters Hi Blake, Freeview and Freesat fall under the same Umbrella, however we operate as two entities as there is slight differences with equipment, signal delivery and channel location from Freeview to Freesat. Freeview currently do not offer Spotlight TV.

  • LuckyTarget Lucky Target Comics - back issue webstore (@LuckyTarget) reported

    Watching live Freeview for the first time in years and it is hour after hour, dozens of channels full of utter crap. How do people still watch this? Streaming has spoiled me.

  • nxthan_7 nathan🏴‍☠️ (@nxthan_7) reported

    @Shannxo @ah99_____ And people seems to forget you can’t always go to matches for loads of different reasons like work, childcare, financial. The 3pm blackout should be abolished and the 3pm games should be broadcast on freeview
