    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

  • 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.

    @anee1a Probably 50% of the foreign films I've seen I saw for the first time on Film4, a Freeview channel lol As long as you're able to read subtitles easily, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm certainly not "cultured", I've just never been put off by subtitles.

    Does anybody know why CBS Justice (Freeview channel 69) says "Service Closed"? Is it permanent?

  • dave1966uk dave1966uk 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 (@dave1966uk) reported

    @FreeviewTV Now next to useless. Lost CBS Drama to RealityXtra which is not available now in my area (Dover). Freeview says use Internet - newsflash - not everyone in the countryside has useable Internet. BT quoted me £143,000 .... No mobile signal either.

    @Ozcan1945 @karl1953howman Unfortunely there is no more capacity left on freeview for this channel to return. The reason for the closure of Forces tv, were down to cost, Arqiva who owns the transmitters, need to encourage broadcasters to switchover from DVB T to DVB T 2 and bring cost down.

    So BBC News HD is no longer on Freeview. Pretty much the only channel I actually watch live. This sucks.

    First the removal of BBC Radio access via voice control on Sonos speakers; now the removal of @BBCNews HD from Freeview. @BBC not doing much to help it's cause with the licence fee debate.

  • elizofbeth mr pither (@elizofbeth) reported

    Kurtsworld hats only ship to the usa. Hellraiser has been taken from me. Horror channel is gone and the new one aint on freeview. Grace is putting on family guy yet again Will my wounds never be allowed to heal …
