    If we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

  • GerryCarpenter3 Gerry Carpenter (@GerryCarpenter3) reported from Sunderland, England

    @Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

    @Johnnypapa64 @NakedAirplane They should put shows like this on Freeview to counteract all the reality TV crap that's on there day in day out.

    @PaulHan12455719 Hello Kaizer. The winds are bad here too, 50-60mph next three days as well. Stay indoors but try to avoid Freeview TV in the day it's rubbish. 🐕 🐾

    @sunorx @Vicster82 Fortunately the various restraining orders mean you'll never get within a hundred yards of a woman. The closest you'll get to kids will be when you're pressed against the glass outside Curry's trying to make sense of CBeebies on the freeview screens

  • will_wren Will Wren (@will_wren) reported

    @Crystalangeles2 @MoriartyProfJ3 If you abolish the TV licence you close down Freeview, 4G & 5G - TV licence also pays for that

  • JamesOMahoney JamesOMahoney (@JamesOMahoney) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Customer Retentions @SkyUK offered a worse discount than previous agent! Leaving no alternative but to #DitchAndSwitch @SkyUK because of #SkyPriceHikes #Freeview
