    @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.

    @BBC I hear that Freeview is being turned off at some point in the future. Well you will lose my payment for the TV licence as that's how I watch TV & if you get rid then I won't be able to watch & I'll cancel my licence. Not a very clever decision to make is it?

    @HughEdw31897368 A problem for many older people like us whose only programme source is freeview. No internet subscription, mobile network only.

    @dskiuk2 @Danrocsky76 @cordbusters I went Paris last year and our tv where we stayed was through through aerial, 50 odd channels and every single one of the was HD. Freeview now is terrible in 2026, full of shovelware channels and hardly any HD channels, SD channels look awful as well.

    @AnewFrost @2006Sable They will get a warrant and come back with the police so you will only delay things if you never watch Freeview you have nothing to hide When they came I showed them I was watching YouTube and Netflix only with the aerial disconnected. They left acknowledging no licence needed

    @aconda_ann I am quite old fashioned as well. I did get a bargain smallish 'internet / smart' TV but no use when freezes or internet cuts off (been happening for years, with no fix). It's on a terrible indoor aerial, so I can't get most Freeview on that one but my fave usual telly: Freeview.

    @Stephencheatley @virginmedia Just get freeview or freesat, Stephen. I’ve got Virgin media broadband and to be fair I’ve never had any problems.

    @bluealoud Poor people had Freeview, working people had Virgin, middle people had Sky and rich people had Apple iMax home cinema room with refreshments bar and heated recliner sofas.

    @TheMekon_Venus at one point Bread was being shown on an endless loop on the "Thats entertainment" freeview channel, alongside "man about the house" and "Steptoe & Son". I never found bread to be funny or entertaining in any way, and other than the phrase "lilo lil", it is not memorable.
