    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

    @FactsStomp @cleanfeed_ttvr Depends when they updated the EPG. Sky updates within minutes. Freeview and Freesat can take a hour or two. Virgin doesn't support dynamic updates so only updates if it days ahead
