    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • u0421793 Ian K Tindale (@u0421793) reported from East Ham, England

  • Arsenal0819 Arsenal Mania (@Arsenal0819) reported

    To really bring football back to fans and boot the rich out of football - all matches to be shown on freeview channels I’m sure SKY will support this 🤡

  • FloraJinora 🌺 𝙈𝙖𝙞𝙙 𝙁𝙡𝙤𝙧𝙖 🌺 (@FloraJinora) reported

    It makes me frustrated cause i see so many hard workers out here busting their asses off, underselling themselves, posting freeview content almost every day and yall would jump in their dms begging for free ****. People barely sub to them, let alone tip.

  • susanna_tayler Susanna Tayler (@susanna_tayler) reported

    @HumaxUK I have an HDR-1800T Freeview recorder and I can't watch the programme I'm recording because there's no sound. Very disappointing. Is there a fix for this?

  • LadyHobton Lucie Ferris (@LadyHobton) reported

    @Helga_Otto_ @David_Suchet Helga, I don't know if this will help....I don't have Sky either, but, Sky Arts has a (free) channel on Freeview here, so I wonder if it does in Germany too. It is Channel No. 11 on the Freeview listing here in the UK.

  • petrolheadtoo Not Gary (@petrolheadtoo) reported

    The first 12 minutes of Sky (freeview) news at 1pm today in the UK was about a trial in the USA. I am so glad i do not pay for this rubbish. I know they are owned by the same company (Comcast) as a major USA woke network

  • DSheight DwightSheight (@DSheight) reported

    @SamanthaMalin When we're over in Spain we've got a Freeview box with only about 8 or 9 channels that actually work. It's bliss. And we wind up watching stuff we never normally would in the UK with our 20 million Sky channels & Netflix. It really takes the pressure off so I get that totally.

  • Ooh_Matron Richard Pearmain (@Ooh_Matron) reported

    The Tom Cruise War Of The Worlds is on TV tonight, the blurb on the Freeview listings says it "deals with adult themes" - I've never heard aliens in giant tripods described like that before

  • airlineboy666 Graham (@airlineboy666) reported

    @janetrmason @BBCBreakfast @sallynugent I suspect most of those families have full sky packages, iPhones and other luxuries. We eat well and cheaply BUT I have to use Freeview and I cannot afford a £100's top rated phone. My families goes without nothing BUT we live to our means. I witness many who claim to be poor...
