    Ok, Peanut Gallery, what is a decent news/current events show available on Freeview that I can watch for 15 minutes in the morning before work with my cereal? I can't do Piers Morgan, and BBC Breakfast IS pretty poor, I'll admit.

  • roryobryan Rory O'Bryan (@roryobryan) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @FreeviewTV It's a usability issue with the Freeview Play software. The program he wants to watch is also available via one of the builtin apps. But there is no choice not to open the app and just watch the show live, so all he gets is a registration screen he can’t understand.

  • Lisa_Evenden Lisa Evenden (@Lisa_Evenden) reported

    @lauralaurab8 Some might not want to pay for it, but I know some people who cannot watch as they still only have freeview, or don't have a PC, tablet, mobile or cannot get 3g/broadband signal to be able to watch. I'm in a rural spot and our broadband speed is awful, Discovery+ kept buffering

  • pigfarmery MrShifter (@pigfarmery) reported

    Our accommodation has only got #Freeview. I’m beginning to have genuine sympathy for poor people.

  • LJ_blitz 💀 サンダーブリッツ 💥 (@LJ_blitz) reported

    @DukeHollyrood @Inside_TheRopes As far as I've seen, @peacockTV is basically a free add-on, not a self-contained broadcasting network, so it'll likely be available alongside current networks, either as an additional service alongside a major network, a free service (similar to Freeview), or both.

    @PhoenixTCat @MPrepuce We lurv #FREESAT it offers SÖ MUCH MØRE than #FREEVIEW and costs not a Squid more than the initial dish & decoder! I still fail to comprehend WHY THE HELL ANYÒNE CÖULD EVEN CONSIDER @VirginMedia. Yùķ!

  • Andrew88820142 Andy (@Andrew88820142) reported

    How is it they can send signals from millions of miles away in space back to a little laboratory on Earth, when I can't even get a good TV signal off freeview 😭😡😡. This is supposed to be the 21st century.. Buck Rogers never had this problem.

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @MisterQuintus @scottygb @SkyUK Why would they brand a free-to-air channel that would show non-premium programming? There's a good reason Pick isn't Sky-branded... because it's got nothing worth watching. They're hardly going to tarnish the brand by making Sky One a garbage Freeview brand

  • luke100watt Luke Watt (@luke100watt) reported

    @GMB can someone do a public service & inform the 75yr old pensioners if they don't watch BBC or Live TV(most TV's now have Freeview so catch up) they do NOT need to pay the TV licence. See MoneySavingExpert (Martin Lewis) website for how to stop licence. Don't need to phone BBC.

  • paulofthepool Paulofthepool (@paulofthepool) reported

    @DeliaNGoG That is really low signal strength. Is this via an aerial or digitally? If an aerial looks like it's out of whack direction-wise. Had a storm? If using Freeview you probably will lose a lot if not got decent signal strength and only picking up from nearest transmitter.
