    @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

    @joshstifter ALIEN. 12yo. HBO “Freeview”. We lived in rural town that got cable tv early and I don’t think my parents even knew what HBO was. Had nightmares for months but couldn’t tell anyone because it was rated R and I would get in trouble.

    @BENEFITS_NEWS Well for a start the Freeview service is guaranteed until at least 2034 and likely to be phased out over a period of time; unlikely before about 2040. 'Freely' is currently being touted as the IPTV replacement - From about £70 for a set-top box; this price will drop dramatically.

    MILLIONS FACE LOSS OF FREEVIEW TV AFTER LOBBYING BY BBC AND ITV BACKED BODY Freeview which serves 13.6 million homes and 40 percent of UK households with more than 70 channels including BBC One ITV Channel 4 and Channel 5 could be axed after 2034 under government plans to end digital terrestrial television. Ministers are expected to publish a consultation paper within weeks setting out the path to an internet only future in the mid 2030s with the switch depending on universal affordable superfast broadband. Campaigners at Silver Voices which represents older people have launched a petition warning the move would disproportionately hit elderly low income and rural viewers who rely on aerials rather than streaming. The push is driven by The Connection Project a lobbying body funded by the BBC ITV Vodafone and BT all of whom stand to benefit commercially from moving viewers online and reducing costs of maintaining one platform. Dennis Reed of Silver Voices said the companies funding The Connection Project all have a commercial interest in moving services online and older viewers deserve better. The Connection Project responded that the transition preserves everyones right to free public service TV via broadband with subsidised costs where needed while the BBC and Department for Culture Media and Sport confirmed they are working to ensure nobody is left behind. Thoughts?

    @ABridgen This is a government tax on the people. Make the BBC pay pre view via iPlayer with a limited free service of 1 channel on Freeview/freely called BBC Mix

    BBC TV Presenter Clive Myrie stated he doesn't have a television in his house and the termination of FREEVIEW should not be a problem to him. 🌐

    I hear that Live from The Apollo will end after its next run of shows. Shame that as I quite enjoyed it. The bbc say it’s down to low viewing figures and saving £. Problem is that the BBC allows multiple episodes to be repeated on Freeview/iplayer channels at regular intervals.

    @PeteBritish Freeview is all I have, and broadband. I would never, ever, pay for Sky.
