@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

@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.

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

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)

.@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.)

@c_newman2010 @ruskin147 Be interested in knowing how that works since would not work over freeview and means set-top box or app on tv needed and this will impact the elderly and poor most. Knock on effect cost to run freeview for itv/c4 increases meaning likely to go subscription too

Music is my first love. And it will be my last.

If the govt wants costs to be paid for pensioners and the unemployed, put it in general taxation. So most people will still have to pay for it, but won't be able to moan about it being poor value for money. Also would preserve Freeview and radio, which are apparently popular.

@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries BBC does NOT maintain Freeview network. That is Arqiva. BBC in partnership with other PSB broadcasters own Freeview. They, like other broadcaster pay carriage charges to Arqiva.

@MattWWoolwich The problem is that the licence fee enables us to watch TV via Freeview. A reasonable model might be to include all that in general taxation. That way it would be funded fairly instead of the current unfair flat rate. Won't happen under the Tories though.

4 seasons, 12 trophies, history makers!!!

@Fionasstalker Why not list all the services from ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5 and the numerous free services on freeview. At worst the same quality but IMO better than bbc offerings

@brownboots23 @stevehemsley @NadineDorries So how do we provide such things as disability programming, Welsh language broadcasting, maintain the Freeview transmitter network (used largely by the elderly and poor) and provide educational resources? These don’t generate profit. Ready when you are.

@MattWWoolwich The BBC is already garbage, as is most of Freeview.

@ChrisJA15486090 @mikegalsworthy @girlyswotspider I have no idea how good/bad GB News is. I have no idea how to see it. It does not appear on Freeview, there is no app for it on my LG TV and I've never got around to installing the app on the phone.

@PaulM30033923 @Radioheady2021 @NadineDorries Guess you don’t watch a single BBC televison show, radio programme, or BBC funded film or read any BBC website or make use of the Freeview transmitter network?

@MrTrevMcCarthy @DaveHogg2 @LeeJBBC I don't need the BBC if I break my leg. We generally all go to school - some pay twice if they go private. Freeview exists. How on Earth can you comment about an affordable service - how many other countries force payment to turn on your TV?
