    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.

  • BenVanDerVelde Ben Van Der Velde (@BenVanDerVelde) reported

    Internet is down, so forced to forage for a movie on Freeview. Stumbled on Equilibrium with Christian Bale and Sean Bean and woah baby is it incredibly silly dystopia. I have just watched a scene containing, and I can't believe I'm writing this, fascist tai chi.

  • Rachelgpeters Rachel Peters 🌞 (@Rachelgpeters) reported

    @mac123_m You too poor to afford anything but Freeview? Too thick to read a book? You poor sod 🥴

  • themikeandrew Mike Andrew (@themikeandrew) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice might be a stupid question but how do I know if I can get Freeview on my TV? I have a Sony 2021 Google tv. Does it require an Aerial or scan via internet? Doesn't seem to be an app available. 🤦🏻🤔 I have sky but no Aerial to connect.

  • adam_m_farrell Adam Farrell (@adam_m_farrell) reported

    @scottygb One Freeview channel would have done to be honest....never been so glad to be abroad to avoid it all.

  • langtoftlad langtoftlad (@langtoftlad) reported

    @SimonMcCoyTV I do think there's been an awful lot of filler but it's not as if the BBC doesn't have three other channels, and there must be 50+ other freeview channels if one cannot tolerate the blanket coverage of the passing of a monarch who has reigned 70 years.

  • OfficialAlgie Algie🕊️💜🎧 (@OfficialAlgie) reported

    @MrWayneGarton @Kieronocall @StanCollymore There's 100s of channels on Freeview... without all the streaming sites that lots of people have... I see no issue...x

  • akadaz92 akadaz92 (@akadaz92) reported

    @YardleyShooting Just flip over now and again,ITV as bad so stayed on freeview. To much 24\7 even if you support the monarchy.
