    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

    @Danny_Acklam @StarTrek When I'm guessing is march 2022 at earliest in the new Paramount plus streaming service. I would say if we put enough pressure on they might put it @paramountnet_uk on Freeview for now until streaming is available.

    @FreeviewAdvice @micknufc Freeview down again in Nottingham how long before all working?

  • roasty88
    Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @WezzyStef907 I get that they want to move it their own service but can't see why they can't put it on one the UK Freeview channels they own like @paramountnet_uk for this season. Would be a ratings killer, advertise @paramountplus and stop piracy. Seems like a win for everyone there.

    @ManchesterTVUK not sure if you are aware, but your Freeview channel 99 is transmitting news about Yorkshire. I have contacted @FreeviewAdvice and they said it’s a broadcast issue with yourselves.

    After watching TV exclusively on catch-up for almost a decade we've got ourselves a Freeview box and let me tell you I was not ready for the emotional onslaught that is the Christmas adverts. My poor pathetic heartstrings

    @JSpaced10 Because the licencing for the Freeview crap is cheap. Original shows are not. Gotta maximise those profits, son.

    @itvnews Thank **** for bad reception on freeview won't have to watch this shower of shite

  • FrancisAShailes
    Francis A Shailes (@FrancisAShailes) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @berkobabe UK, but I don't have a TV that can get Freeview. I had a digibox but it's very poor at reception now (I'm near Bristol). I wish one day TPTV could be fed to the internet like Drama and Yesterday etc.... but I know there are obstacles to that.

    @sgordon_the87 @russty_russ The signal was very weak at the time, I bought a DTT set top from Currys just before Freeview launched. ITV2 was on-air from 2.35pm - midnight. Aside from that, little else from them. ITN News Channel unusually aired on the platform from 6am - 9.25am.
