    @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

    Just zapped into Really TV Channel (Ch 17 Freeview) Minute by Minute Emergency which features a terrible day in Melbourne on the 20th January 2017.

  • FreeFilmsUK FreeFilms UK (@FreeFilmsUK) reported

    Unhappily, today's showing of Dog Day Afternoon (1975) starring The Cat in the Hat as Angus MacGyver has been postponed due to flu, but the really bad one. #freeview

    @BathCA @JackDeBath @sidcot Yes the mobile reception in Bath can be patchy, especially EE, but for years the TV reception on the south side of the valley has been crap, very few Freeview channels are available from the transmitter on Bathampton Down. Nobody seems to have ever worried about that.

    @FreeviewTV Hi, I wonder if someone could help - I live in the L1 postcode and there was a big power cut in our area that lasted a few hours on Thursday night. We haven't been able to get any Freeview channels since then/BBC, ITV etc. Could someone advise please? Ta.

  • greenbenjamin Benjamin Green (@greenbenjamin) reported

    @ITVXhelp @ITVX Thanks, but that’s not a great deal of help as Freeview Play is listed, but just says ‘some devices not supported’. Why would the software not be written to work on devices that might be a few years older but still being sold? Or is it just not been sorted yet?

    @Petwill1 It really is time Gold And Alibi were made Freeview channels I can't afford Sky or Virgin TV. I refuse to sign up to a streaming service. Most of the stuff on Gold has been played to death.

    Oh dear! The #Freeview signal has failed again! It happens every so often. #Newhaven

    @GBNEWS 'LIVE now: Sky 512, Virgin 604, Freeview 236, Freesat 216, YouView 236, Samsung 4326, Sky Glass 509, DAB+ Radio, GB News App, YouTube, Online.' And I've never seen one minute. Despite this my Twitter feed is clogged up with your tweets.
