    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?

    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 😂

    @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.

    @cordbusters Hoping that the video resolution will be higher than the poor 544 x 576 on freeview at 720 x 576 at least

    Does anyone who sees this know how to watch ITV WC other than via the app when you don’t have access to freeview? The STV app is forced on us Scottish viewers by ITV & is utter CRAP quality for live footie & I don’t have access to freeview, I use a fire stick & no aerial. 😭😭😭

    @NotFarLeftAtAll All part of controlling us. I don’t have TV packages only Freeview & my internet is bad so don’t watch much anyway, barely anything in summer. Unfair for the elderly.

    Blake (@BlakeAntcliff) reported

    @SheLovesTweets @theipaper Freely TV's are the same as Freeview and Freesat, the problem is Internet only doesn't take into account people who live in blackspots and barely get anything much better than old school dial up. Nor does it account for anyone who doesn't want/have broadband.

    @Hi_De_Helen Apparently it's going to get worse all down to Sky but how does that include Freeview losing them too 🤔 All I could find out from Google search piece about it in Sun today.

    Unsurprisingly, so many things have not been considered with the whole "shutting off terrestrial" tv thing. For instance, companies like BT/EE do NOT broadcast the Freeview channels on their online service in rural Scotland. These come in on the aeriel, the rest through your ...

    @SGV_UK @EdanaThe2nd I think I had something similar in my last flat as I couldn't get a signal for Freeview. It was a Roku stick I plugged into my TV to stream via my broadband

    @connor_naismith @GMcGarrySport @MarkBirtles Crewe fan here, like a lot of our (small and very tinpot) fanbase I won’t bother travelling 20 minutes down the road for today’s game, because it isn’t a derby. Do I listen on freeview or will it be on DAB as we’re playing a big club?
