    @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.

    @itvcalendar @ITV Wow! TV transmitters don't usually catch fire. The structure is metal, so it will be the equipment at the foot of the mast that's will be the problem. It will mean no Freeview for the area it serves.

  • zawenaeb ZAWENA B (@zawenaeb) reported

    The fact sky broadband is down is so annoying. I have a smart TV and now can't watch anything but freeview and teleshopping until the broadband and WiFi is back on. #skydown

  • lewgall Lewgall (@lewgall) reported

    Wish Premier Sports would get tae ****. How can he have Sky, BT, prime and freeview channels but still no see a game.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital I've been living over 3 years now without the right freeview, due to my location. I think your find BBC services are better than ITV when it comes to reception issues,

  • J_P_Quin James Quin (@J_P_Quin) reported

    Well ****. The Bilsdale TV transmitter that serves the North Yorkshire region is currently on fire. So that means no Freeview telly until the problem is sorted out.

  • iamian16 iamian16 (@iamian16) reported

    @Mark56623345 @a516digital Bilsdale is a primary mast serving North Yorks, Teesside, Co. Durham and some of Tyne & Wear. Unless you can redirect your aerial and get a signal from Emley Moor or Pontop you’re stuffed for Freeview.

  • stuart1963 Stuart Crawford (@stuart1963) reported

    @BBC i wanted to 4hank you for letting me see how channels there are on freeview. as i didn't have to watch idiot football pundits try to commentate on the Olympic gamed. i only saw a bit of the opening ceremony.

  • GrahamWatts15 Northern Lad 💙 (@GrahamWatts15) reported

    @tompeck I'd sooner pay the licence fee than the rip off subscriptions of both Virgin and Sky It's amazing how a huge % of the defund the BBC brigade have no problem subscribing to TV and Broadband packages that charge you to send down freeview channels and charge you a phone line rental

  • MuxCoDAB MuxCo (@MuxCoDAB) reported

    Due to a fire at the Bilsdale transmitter, our local North Yorkshire DAB multiplex will have reduced coverage. The incident has affected all services from the transmitter including Freeview, local FM and national/local DAB.

  • Lisa7Pettifer Lisa Pettifer 🌈 (@Lisa7Pettifer) reported

    @jonathanteacher This is what we’re finding. I’m going into a no-contract basic package for now. If I find we’re still not getting more use out of it as a service than we could just get on Freeview boxes, then I’ll just ditch them.
