  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • catterall_simon Simon Catterall (@catterall_simon) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  • roy_gill Roy Gill (@roy_gill) reported

    @fitgeek_uk Hard to say. I stream a fair amount of movies, TV and music, but I also use a lot of physical media (and have freeview) so if/when the internet goes down, I wouldn’t be *without* any of those entertainment options, I’d just have less immediate choice.

  • timrobi12026017 tim robinson (@timrobi12026017) reported

    So poor I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • hispanista Hispanista (@hispanista) reported

    @thefish64 @psychpolis Never used them in the U.K. Freeview was enough + NowTV, Netflix and Prime. My fibre broadband was BT.

  • HanMarshyVP Abby the Tank's Wife (@HanMarshyVP) reported

    @EarlFlorkin 1. I don't have a TV licence 2. I don't have HBO or Sky Atlantic 3. I only have an SD Freeview box which is super grainy 4. The only way I can watch it is it my friend illegally downloads it for me, which is obviously a bad thing

  • Ondarian_ASMR Ondarian ASMR - (He/Him) 👈🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇺🇳 (@Ondarian_ASMR) reported

    @bluebellchoppy He was on TV over Christmas, apparently he's a TV cook now on Food Network on Freeview/Sky.

  • CatIpswich Toby the Cat (Ipswich) (@CatIpswich) reported

    @last_of_england I never knew what to think of the film. It left me feeling quite depressed. If they screen it on Freeview, I'll give it a try.

  • digibell Christopher Bell (@digibell) reported from Bognor Regis, England

    @FreeviewTV Hi there, I’ve been having bad problems with Freeview reception over past few days in Bognor Regis PO21. Channels blocking and after retuning, no HD channels whatsoever

  • SimonDainty2 Simon Dainty☮️ (@SimonDainty2) reported
