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.

@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.

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

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.

@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.

@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.

@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.

@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

@TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

@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.

@CapelLofft Never underestimate them. A good way to combat it is feing ignorance. You don't have a smartphone, you have no computers. Never been much into that stuff. You just have a plain telly and freeview box. No internet. And you don't have BBC, or a smart meter.

It's pretty obvious that somebody some corporation has brought out most of the movie channels that we get on Freeview because they're just filling them up with 60 70 and 80 year old crap Western and war movies that no one wants to watch. The advertisers can't be doing very well

I didn't really bother much with TV. I could watch "on demand" if I really wanted to see something. But I was given a "smart-vu" dongle. It really pushes you to pay services. It takes two or three attempts to go to freeview. And then, ohh my goodness, TV is terrible.

@sallyhoult1 @PeacefulUntree And those that say William and Catherine watched Suits are off their rockers. It was allegedly shown on a Freeview channel called Dave. Now I've watched Dave, but I've never even seen Suits advertised, never mind broadcast.
