    @JayStringer Just check out Blaze tv on freeview, seems like mad alien shit is half their content.

  • darrksquid Kate🇪🇺 (@darrksquid) reported from Bonnyrigg, Scotland

    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.

  • Gosia79K lucy (@Gosia79K) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @BBCWorld No wonder! Freeview is crap and we are sitting at home!

  • gordonhudsonnu Gordon Hudson (@gordonhudsonnu) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @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.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @BenJohn45874515 Freeview is a very patchy service, and what you get very much depends on where you live, if you live near a relay for example you only get around 20 channels, if its a transmitter you get around 70, or half what you get off freesat or the free channels on sky.

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @a516digital @TalkingPicsTV announced they were moving on Freeview a few weeks back. The moral here is never put your channel numbers on your merchandise. My beanie hat will be out of date 😢

  • BBCNottingham BBC Radio Nottingham (@BBCNottingham) reported

    Due to technical issues, transmission via 103.8FM may be affected between 12pm and 2pm today. But don't worry! You can still listen to BBC Radio Nottingham online, on Freeview, or by tuning over to DAB 📻 We're sorry for any inconvenience caused.

  • KevyCanavan kevycanavan (@KevyCanavan) reported

    There’s a wee freeview Telly app on my playstation with all these made up channels. One of them plays most haunted all day on a loop, and does anyone know how to cancel sky?

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Fog! Temperature Inversion! Weird things may happen to your Freeview signal tonight and tomorrow. Don't retune! (Unless your hobby is DXing and you want to see if you can get some out-of-region/foreign services.)

  • GYPTXVN brown boy 🤎𓂀 (@GYPTXVN) reported

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

  • Redtagheur Eddie (@Redtagheur) reported

    Virgin Media prices going up again, MUCH MORE than the rate of inflation (again). For the same old **** that no-one watches. I'm leaving. Freeview will do now.
