  • 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)

  • 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

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    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

  • 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.

    @afneil Why are you lot so ******* obsessed with shite from a century ago. You watch a History Channel documentary on Freeview and think you're all Whinston Churchill. Put the bunting down. You weren't even alive. YOU personally didn't win **** all. Learn from extremism. Be better.

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @drewsnx oh look its another pile of **** spouted out on the bigoted TV channel. The channel that's been deleted from every freeview box & TV.

  • spectral_song SpectralSong 💙🇺🇦 (@spectral_song) reported

    @deathofbuckley Echoes of Price & Andre, on your screens soon. Prob Ch5 or some Freeview repeats crap. Now let me tell the world all about my life. No takers? Phew! Couldn't be arsed anyway. Not that needy.

  • GavinDorris G M Dundee-Hausman (@GavinDorris) reported

    @RMGLUCK2017 @Legend__Channel wow, another freeview candidate... as the hollanders never tire of saying, interressant...

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @GarryLavin Most Freeview connected TVs and set top boxes can receive the service.

  • Cabaal Cabaal 🇮🇪🇪🇺 (@Cabaal) reported

    @adrianweckler Zero interest in Sky for TV. We got rid of it in 2009 with last recession and just watched freeview available channels. People don't realise just how many channels you can watch for free, its fairly decent. Can signup/cancel streaming service as needed then. Big cost savings

  • pjwilding Paul Wilding ♿️🏳️‍🌈 (@pjwilding) reported

    @Ofcom Already done it. Cancelled Virgin, Cable TV. Now just have Freeview. Cancelled Netflix. I would prefer to cancel the BBC and keep Netflix but that’s not an option, if I want to watch live Ch4. Time to rethink the TV license!

  • hywelgibbs Hywel Gibbs (@hywelgibbs) reported

    @Channel4 When will this streaming service be available on Freeview please?

  • Lundavra JMB (@Lundavra) reported

    @thejohnnylowe @riceuten @ArchRose90 Quote some audited figures, all the ones I have seen show they are well behind BBC News and Sky News. Never seen GB News because of its lack of national coverage on Freeview.

  • MsKinLondon Katrina Buchanan 💙💚 (@MsKinLondon) reported

    I've discovered the most fantastically awful programme on a Freeview channel. Script, direction, acting all splendidly and spectacularly dreadful. I am completely hooked
