    @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

    Never knew retuning your Freeview TV or set top box would be so much of an hassle sometimes I just can't be bothered doing it..

    @GPv3000 As long as major international tournaments are on freeview it will never die in the UK.

  • dave1966uk dave1966uk 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 (@dave1966uk) reported

    @FreeviewTV Now next to useless. Lost CBS Drama to RealityXtra which is not available now in my area (Dover). Freeview says use Internet - newsflash - not everyone in the countryside has useable Internet. BT quoted me £143,000 .... No mobile signal either.

    @westywaldo @btsport That's kinda my point then, everything is better when it's free lol, if not freeview though then i'm glad it's not sky, Sky lock you in, it's extremely expensive and their flexibility with their apps for watching other than on TV are crap, same as their multi room.

    @SkyNews Give up Sky, Netflix, Disney plus, Paramount plus, Amazon prime. Plenty on freeview. Cut down on alcohol and smoking. There are many people who are truly poor through no fault of their own. Contact CAB or Welfare Rights.

    Kurtsworld hats only ship to the usa. Hellraiser has been taken from me. Horror channel is gone and the new one aint on freeview. Grace is putting on family guy yet again Will my wounds never be allowed to heal …

    @anee1a Probably 50% of the foreign films I've seen I saw for the first time on Film4, a Freeview channel lol As long as you're able to read subtitles easily, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm certainly not "cultured", I've just never been put off by subtitles.

    @Michael11923873 Yes, some areas of the UK including Humber will be able to receive both our local service (on channel 7 or 8) and our national services (on channel 65 and 91) on Freeview from tomorrow. These are all SD services. Pass on the message: Retune 30 June!
