    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

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @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

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @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

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    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)

    @AVForums hi, I have an nvidea shield connected via hdmi cable to my tv but when I turn it on my freeview signal completely disappears if I pull the cable out freeview returns can you offer any advice please cheers.👍

  • SaveCBBC Save CBBC (@SaveCBBC) reported

    @W0NK042 @UKChange The channel itself is closing though, on linear TV. It will no longer be accessible on Freeview, Sky etc.. - which is the problem for those who depend on it / do not have access to high speed BB. I could have worded this “CBBC is closing” but like you say, that’s not happening

  • UTTRob Rob (@UTTRob) reported

    It's great that AEW is on a freeview chanel and like it or loath it AEW tries to provide fan service to the hardcore audience. But in terms of introducing new fans to wrestling in the UK I can only imagine that it's niche product has a minimal impact.

  • andyAVAVsystems Andy AVAV Systems (@andyAVAVsystems) reported

    @Paulusdmc42 That’s the issue. He disconnected the old Freesat Humax, put the adapters on & connected it to a Freeview Box Then wondered why it didn’t work

  • HSouthwellFE Hazel Southwell (@HSouthwellFE) reported

    Channel 4 HD is channel 104 on freeview for anyone else who just watched the start in the resolution of an etch-a-sketch

  • SkyNews Sky News (@SkyNews) reported

    Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell and Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis join #KayBurley at 8:30am to discuss the service of thanksgiving for the #PlatinumJubilee celebrations. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • Crayon28715896 Mark (@Crayon28715896) reported

    @SkyNews It’s a shame the picture on Sky News is terrible (Freeview). I’d of watched more on Sky News if the picture wasn’t so bad.

  • Geordieonhol Geordieandproud (@Geordieonhol) reported

    @sophielouisecc I worked. I'm not celebrating. I've got financial problems of my own to be able to splurge on a celebration of a rich person which would them put profits into a supermarket who over charge on basic products. I'm quite happy watching Freeview on my TV with a cuppa.

    This is for the lady who tried to get into my private chat on @AdultWorkcom today. I was on another call - it wasn’t because you are obviously a fellow SW! That only happens in freeview. I have no problem being remunerated by any respectful peeps! ✅
