    @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.

    Wow #biggamenight is awful! A poor attempt by @channel5_tv to recreate something similar to @SoccerAM only for the NFl. Still, good to have games on Freeview though

  • Ajax62859643753 Welcome FM 101.3 (@Ajax62859643753) reported

    @LeilaniDowding Also the BBC are on Freeview and that is a free to view service. The BBC are pay to view. They SHOULD NOT BE ON FREEVIEW.

    @channel5_tv Sunshine Murders on Freeview is not on series link. Please fix. Thank you.

  • GeneHunt81 GeneHunt81 (@GeneHunt81) reported

    Because the board treat us like consumers we should think of the club the same way. As consumers we are paying the price of the full sky package but we're getting the freeview channels. Rodgers is merely the repair man here to fix signal issues. We'll still get freeview once gone

    @JacquiDeevoy1 I think I may have mentioned before that I've never held a TV licence ever. When I visit a friend he has Freeview channels running which makes me feel depressed instantly. As an IT guy I have a Linux Kodi Box that allows me all my OdySee, Rumble & Bitchute content ads Free.
