@HumanityReality @TonyTcrawley666 @voodude64 There is. They are all availble on their own streaming apps like iPlayer All4 etc. What Kapang did was aggregate them all into one place. I had a look and their other channels are still working, just not the Freeview ones. This makes me suspect its a legal issue.

Ok, Peanut Gallery, what is a decent news/current events show available on Freeview that I can watch for 15 minutes in the morning before work with my cereal? I can't do Piers Morgan, and BBC Breakfast IS pretty poor, I'll admit.

Is there some reason only the @ITV 2 freeview signal keeps breaking up every evening? It's unwatchable and I've retuned the TV several times already.

@virginmedia someone needs to think outside the box and have backup systems, yea we have freeview via aerial, yea we have mobiles and mobile data but by having 5g sim in your hubs it would at least give those that don't have tv and Internet service working

@Lettiejp @AdeGardens @BBCNewsnight The BBC could encrypt its signals tomorrow - technically it's trivial to implement on both iPlayer and Freeview. But they continue to lie about this and to make excuses. I guess when your product is so poor, forcing people to pay for it makes sense. No-one would subscribe to BBC!

@GhostOfCorkey @DeathlyAcorn @KayBurley It was the case that radio rights came with the combined TV licence. But not anymore, except perhaps if you only listen to the radio via FreeView, satellite or cable. TVLicensing confirms this in their FAQs. What is better than BBC that you do watch please? Or just nothing live and never BBC, not even on-demand/catch-up?? --Genuinely interested.
