  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • 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.

  • DaveBStDW Dave Bowden (@DaveBStDW) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

  • uncriticalsimon Simon 🥑🚟🚅😈💉💉💉 (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, Wales

    .@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes aren’t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the “normal” ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

  • 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)

  • 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

    @IanGrant_edwest @BBCScotland Do you know the worst part you have to pay bbc before you can pay sky or bt or virgin or even freeview

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV The move from the Freeview HD multiplex to the SD one was much appreciated. As was the addition of a subtitling service to your channel : )

  • JohnLoony John Cartwright (@JohnLoony) reported

    Just watched “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” (1986) on the Great Movies channel (Freeview 33). Unfortunately and inexplicably they cut out the final scene. #FerrisBueller

  • lalaburrow Jo-Anne Burrow (@lalaburrow) reported

    @LiamcBakes your series of #GBBO is showing now on Food Network, Freeview 42.

  • cryingperv izzy 🥡 (@cryingperv) reported

    something about having an old *** tv means that bbc will never work on my ******* plug in satellite but babestation is always there for me luv freeview

  • Johnjac86130202 John jackson (@Johnjac86130202) reported

    @MerielMyers I don't buy any streaming. I sometimes look at programme listings and see it's 99% utter dross . Freeview and standard TV channels provide enough crap without paying for more.

  • ChiefScrobbler Chief Scrobbler ✝️ (@ChiefScrobbler) reported

    The 2005 film 'Kingdom of Heaven' is currently on Freeview ch33. The times I've seen this but never in its entirety! I always seem to find it by accident and end up watching a big chunk of it.

  • enajydoom Jane (@enajydoom) reported

    @jackiepatie @BertrandRustles I only have freeview and Netflix. No sky, no Disney, no Amazon. I’ve never seen the thing people are talking about.
