    @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.

  • the80smovieclub The '80s Oozy Blood (@the80smovieclub) reported

    I might be into retro **** but it's rough going back to stay with a parent for a few days. No WiFi, basic Freeview and having to take a bath because there's no shower. This is bad nostalgia.

  • SCEnquirer Southern Counties Enquirer (@SCEnquirer) reported

    @GemSiobhan @spectator @afneil You can pick up a 1TB BT freeview+ box on eBay for about £69. No subscriptions. For me it's buying a freeview+ box was a small price to pay to never have to watch adverts.

  • Deborahj_Powell Deborah Powell (@Deborahj_Powell) reported

    @dougmcfarlane41 They sent me a DM after I was commenting on your Freeview post the other day. Told me that my local service would be back soon, etc. etc. In Spain????

  • rebecca_ryder21 Rebecca Ryder 💙 (@rebecca_ryder21) reported

    I finally figured out how to get sky arts woo. It was pick, I retuned it and then it vanished. You have to do a "network channel scan" if you're on Freeview and it vanishes.

  • Jon_oh_oh_7 Jonathan (@Jon_oh_oh_7) reported

    Is it multitoom compatible? What happens when cancel subscription? The tv wont have built in freeview so will b redundant @SkyHelpTeam #skyglass

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @dannysavage Not everywhere. Parts of Ripon, Thirsk and Harrogate still have very little or no signal. Freeview and Arqiva are on the case. Temporary relay being planned in next 14 days.

  • sunkisscribbles Joy 🏳️‍🌈 (@sunkisscribbles) reported

    @ScrumptiousBlue Ahh OK, I just don't want my account deleted so that's a bit reassuring - thanks. Been asking them for help for 10 days but they won't reply, no idea why. Dr Pimple Popper - isn't that on Freeview?

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @dannysavage @yorkshireladtv It's channels that are text services, teletext holidays is one, or use the Internet to show programmes that are not transmitted over the Freeview UHF network.

  • CllrGaryMalcolm Cllr Gary Malcolm 🔶️🌈 (@CllrGaryMalcolm) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Food Network (channel 42) has mysteriously disappeared from my TV. Tried retuning and still won't reappear. Is this a Freeview issue/ do I just have to be patient and wait? Thank you.

  • DiamondClasp Diamonds 💙 (@DiamondClasp) reported

    @StephenMangan @8twinge @SkyArts But you can't get Freeview on a laptop... (We don't have a tv signal here so have to stream everything)
