@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@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.

IdealWorld TV selling junk on Freeview channel 51 and Sky UK 668 Someone should report this lot for lying live on air the stuff they say is sold out still appears on the website plus selling overpriced crappy watches absolutely terrible

@Riley_Gaines_ No. It gets shouted about constantly and has disproportionate coverage of those with those opinions across major outlets. MPs with those opinions have their own TV and radio shows on Freeview with very little governance. You're talking bollocks. Stop ****-stirring.

Viewers are advised to check their devices and retune as necessary to continue accessing available channels.

@mikestanford01 @RoslynByfield @BBCr4today On the Radio, BBC World Service is the best bet. ALL the other channels are for entertainment. Now Al Jazeera is not on Freeview the only option is 'Sky News' ... warts and all. I #mute adverts.
