    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie 🇺🇦 (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @putthetellyon And on top of that HD channels are actually closing down on Freeview. The picture quality of low bit-rate SD channels is increasingly an issue in a world where people have bigger TV and HD streaming services as the norm.

  • SteveHaywood11 Steve Haywood (@SteveHaywood11) reported

    @TalkTV I have lost talk tv on my freeview platform is their an issue with it thanks

  • StuHennigan Stu Hennigan (@StuHennigan) reported

    Ah **** Anvil is on Sky Arts right now and the reception on my freeview box is borked 😫

  • leckston Heather (@leckston) reported

    @petemorristwit Simples- the @BBC should be on Freeview or a subscription service. They've screwed the British public for too long.😡

  • shirleyGTTO 💙 #LabourLeaks ... #FordeReport. NO DMs (@shirleyGTTO) reported

    @robert_lawman Possibly never. ADSL the only option. Fibre been on telegraph poles for a year (falling trees permitting) but then copper wire from pole to Set top box. 20Mb/s max (ambitious). 1Mb/s up. Unlimited GBs cos must have French Freeview TV. 34ish p/m (averaged) over 2yr contract.

  • FourQ #NoWarPlease #StopTheWar 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔮 ♿ (@FourQ) reported

    @minxlj It's a channel we never watch. Unless they had F1 on way back, we've only ever tuned in for the rugby since we moved here. Next time I'm downstairs I'll set the Freeview box to record it. Could be the programme that changes it all. 🤔

  • FintanTheWrong FintanT (@FintanTheWrong) reported

    The Horror Channel on Freeview now playing an awful movie called Extraterrestrial
