    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 signal issues with a client in Balerno - the wind had rubbed the loose cable against the edge of the roof and water had got in causing pixellation & loss of channels. Cable replaced - problem solved!

    @GlasgowNotOsteo @Lochrie I don’t have freeview. I’ve got CNN back now though. I think @Lochrie’s right - it’s a bandwidth issue.

    @smashingpaps @flanders1914 The comparison would be with the TV signal, not the TV itself. I doubt there's any TV sold nowadays that doesn't have a freeview receiver built in. Likewise the free broadband would provide the 'signal', the equipment for utilising it would be separate - be it a phone, laptop, tv

    @RejoinersRus @joncstone @peterjukes If they were only streaming over the net as an OTT service, they wouldn't. But if they're using broadcast over DAB or Freeview/Freesat, they would.

    @BBCSimonMcCoy What happened near the end of the One O'clock News today? The screen went blank, then a few seconds of the news music, then Johnson speaking in the House of Commons. The Freeview information box said 'No Signal'. I am in the Crystal Palace transmission area.

    Dear @virginmedia just received your email confirming you are doing a big price hike, during a pandemic, when your level of service is atrocious, I’m basically paying for freeview. Where on my account can I find out when my contract expires, as this is a step too far.

    @CFL1959 @FreeviewAdvice Is yours a Sony TV too? Freeview passed me on to Sony who have passed the issue to their technical staff. That was yesterday. Maybe Des got a reply as he contacted Sony before me.
