    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

    @Natzz6487 @MissNicoleDeans I wouldn’t worry too much. You’ll still see the original on prime time tv at Christmas while this awful looking remake will get a slot on the Christmas channel on freeview at 7am in the morning on the 8th of December. Don’t fret

  • TEOL85 The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported

    @SkyUK Freeview Play should get Sky Play App with Sky Arts, Challenge, Pick and News the Freeview channels free of charge with the option to further login with your forum password and put your viewing card number in. That converts existing smart TVs into a Sky Glass TV as well.

  • rebecca_ryder21 Rebecca Ryder 💙 (@rebecca_ryder21) reported

    I finally figured out how to get sky arts woo. It was pick, I retuned it and then it vanished. You have to do a "network channel scan" if you're on Freeview and it vanishes.

  • Jon_oh_oh_7 Jonathan (@Jon_oh_oh_7) reported

    Is it multitoom compatible? What happens when cancel subscription? The tv wont have built in freeview so will b redundant @SkyHelpTeam #skyglass

  • DugMillward The Rodent (@DugMillward) reported

    @Channel4 & @channel5_tv with all the problems with your networks going down, no subtitles unavailable to the deaf, why not open a 2nd channel on Freeview with all the same programming at the same time (like the HD channels), but with a Signer and subtitles on screen at all times

  • ChamarelDesigns Chamarel Designs (@ChamarelDesigns) reported

    @greatmoviesuk I’ve been watching GreatMovies Christmas since it launched for this year and it’s just disappeared mid-movie this evening. It returned but with a split screen. Unplugged tv & still had the issue so I auto retuned & now channels 51 AND 49 don’t exist on my freeview!

  • SCEnquirer Southern Counties Enquirer (@SCEnquirer) reported

    @GemSiobhan @spectator @afneil You can pick up a 1TB BT freeview+ box on eBay for about £69. No subscriptions. For me it's buying a freeview+ box was a small price to pay to never have to watch adverts.

    I would like #vegansuk just to take a look at how farmers care for their animals. With sheep, look at what they supply beyond meat. Go out buy wool to insulate your homes, insulate yourselves. Never think an animal is wasted. Freeview 82 now @Katehumble make nature work) #vegans

  • richhol99 Richard Hollingworth (@richhol99) reported

    @Freeview Advice 22 channels tuned (no HD) at a very low signal level (~10% indicated on TV), some break up in Northallerton. Surely it should be better than this at only 12miles to Bilsdale? The system is not letting me DM you with postcode and number.

    I don’t have Netflix so I watched a Poundland version of a series on some **** on some freeview channel. Quid Game was a bit **** tbh
