    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?

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

    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.

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

    Is there some reason only the @ITV 2 freeview signal keeps breaking up every evening? It's unwatchable and I've retuned the TV several times already.

  • newwales

    @FreeviewTV WHY is Freeview absolutely terrible in Wrexham. LL14 can't get any of the HD channels 101, 102, 103, 104 not been working for ages. @wrexham #wrexham

    DON (@Levy_antics) reported

    @lyncey_gilbe @skytv I’m sorry for your loss. I don’t know what service you have, but ring them again and talk to someone different. My father in law had issues paying sky bill and they dropped tv down from £60/m to just tv essentials (freeview channels for Q) for £5/m til end of contract.

    @chellew_grant @_MaccaNZ Which started about the turn of the century, that's when I stopped getting the paper and gave away my freeview box. Only watch MSM news when I'm at my parents & as of last night that will be never again. Do we have to go through 45 yrs worth of tyranny to ride against the system?

  • roonsopo

    @Strange_G @sootytweet But Freeview etc still broadcasts their garbage. If we have this garbage I’d like to have the RT garbage to compare garbage

  • sabrina777z
    SabrinaEvans01 (@sabrina777z) reported

    @stephen2876 @NotFarLeftAtAll Because those that can't afford Netflix or Prime or Disney have zero choice but to watch Freeview style TV and most of that is repeats from 70s/80/90etc so BBC and ITV are bad but they are less likely to be repeats.

  • rgoucher
    Richard Goucher (@rgoucher) reported

    @leethommo I suppose it was the best of a bad job, the rest of the TV schedule (especially for tight wads like me who just have Freeview) was pretty appalling. Lots probably just watch out of habit (that’s kind of what we do). It was pretty grim though.

    @MargeyS09 No problem Willow. So rare that the BBC or any Freeview channel shows very much that she just didnt bother looking.
