    Is anybody else here in #London having problems with #Freeview today? I thought it was my TV but a neighbour is having similar problems.

  • Bandtraxs Clad Traxs (@Bandtraxs) reported

    @GBNEWS 🗣your video/audio bandwidth is poor on Freeview. You should increase it. It’s awful.

  • JibbleBobble Jamie Matthews (@JibbleBobble) reported

    @ricardoautobahn Most things on That's TV are in the wrong aspect ratio. Some (un)lucky viewers can also find That's TV on channel 7 on Freeview where it is disguised as the 'local tv' service. Still worth a watch to see the Thames TV logo at the start of Benny Hill.

    @SimonPGiles @emmaclairedow @FreeviewTV Hi Simon, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. High pressure has been present for a few days and hopefully will move on soon. If you have retuned, you will have to retune again once the weather changes.
