    @Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

    There's a new TV news station on the block starting soon on Freeview etc. GB News. To show your support for a healthy alternative to the usual BBC/ITN/Ch4/Sky News channel, search "New British... " on Facebook

    @gordon_dudgeon @profsked @edglasgow59 I read you can delete the BBC from your Freeview by having a piss down the back of your TV. Haven't tried it myself, but let me know how you get on.

    @landiejm Sadly no, it's TV only. Freeview 81. Sky 328. Freesat 306. Virgin 445. And not a stupid question at all.

    @litg50 @LozzaFox @BBC Freeview you idiot just like now but without paying £160 for the privilege of free to air television.

    @Hookademus @SpudFromDublin @MattAndo63 When my Virgin service goes down I switch to Freeview so still have Tv!

  • Reed88Mr Lewis Reed (@Reed88Mr) reported

    Anyone else’s freeview completely shut down?? @FreeviewTV #freeviewdown

  • Borders750 Graeme Rendall (@Borders750) reported

    @THESPACEC0WB0Y Doubtful, although there's always the remote possibility that one of the UK news shows picks parts of it out. I don't think CBS is available on Freeview, just CNN, and from what I've seen of that, it's terrible.
