    @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.

    Why do I pay for @skytv again? Never works or downloads anything! May aswell stick with freeview as thatโ€™s pretty much all that is functional! ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ค

    @SkyUK Relying on streaming for all your tv content is a terrible idea. Having freeview as back up means you need an aerial on your roof, which negates the main benefit if sky glass!

    @horror_channel Hi, I've just bought a freesat box and trying to access Horror Bites, but when I go to channel 138 I only get the existing Freeview channel, how can I access the in demand service on Freesat?

    @RadioTimes Thanks for the reply and I understand the intention. What is slightly more annoying is that the site no longer allows one to set a default service provider (i.e. Sky or Freesat.) I use Freeview and it used to be that once I'd selected that service as the provider the: contd . . .

    @MartinD64044821 @BBCBreaking It could theoretically still broadcast on Freeview but they could not get the signal to the UK without using an EU regulated distribution company. Now even that possibility is shut down. If you are desperate you can watch it online.

    Freeview Play and LG have announced a new five-year agreement this morning, so after the unexpected Freeview Play issues of LG's 2020 TVs, UK LG TV buyers won't have to worry about potentially not getting the main UK terrestrial broadcaster apps again until 2027.

    @Yekki_1 Use Freeview box with antenna where you can get a convenient signal and check the remote will work at that distance, then hdmi wireless extender to your TV. Not elegant though.

    @JohnSimpsonNews I think there's a difference between it being available on the Internet and on Freeview. German radio broadcasts could presumably be heard on a crackling signal in WWII. Not on HD on a 50 inch screen in my living room. Or do you see them as essentially the same?
