  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

    @BBCArchive This is like a really bad soft core gay film; like the 10 minute freeview on an adult channel. Is Quentin the Dish Of The Day?

  • Ian12890932 Ian (@Ian12890932) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I have had no freeview since Thursday. M29 boothstown. Is winter hill down?

  • little_mavis Mary Wombat 🐝💙 (@little_mavis) reported

    Right. I'm going to pretend all this **** isn't happening foe a bit. Anything good on the (Freeview) telly tonight?

  • LeeRaldar 🇬🇧_Lee Wardle_🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@LeeRaldar) reported

    @actiontiff I only know about the state of UK TV by hearsay, not had one for about 15 years, was spending more time jabbing the remote than actually watching anything. Seen Vikings, Peaky Blinders, Breaking bad, Walking dead series since then from various freeview sites and that's about all.

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

  • itspetersanford LegendPeterSanford (@itspetersanford) reported

    @tomhfh I have rescanned my freeview box and labelled GBNEWS as ******** TOM. Just to ensure I never watch the Channel until Tom has got a gig more in line with his skill set. The Beano? Viz?

  • nemalki Jeff Harris (@nemalki) reported

    @breanimator Ironically, WarnerMedia is INCREASING Cartoon Network's footprint in those markets where Disney is abandoning cable/satellite/Freeview because they still believe there's still a market for them.

  • Leemackie mucker (@Leemackie) reported from Moulton, England

    Help please Freeview tv. I have accidentally deleted BBC1 from the listing on my TV and I have know idea how to re add it. Techwood tv

  • Nick72507205 Nick 💙 (@Nick72507205) reported

    @JulieCourtTV Hi Julie, its saying over here in the UK that Court TV on Freeview Ch89 - This service has now closed. Just wondered if you know anything as there are still the channel listings, but no service. Kind regards, Nick.
