  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @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

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

    Watching #TheThing (1982) on the Horror channel (Freeview 68). No matter how many dozens of times I watch this movie, the stupid arrogant American scientists never seem to learn to just kill the dog in the first place. You would have thought they might have learnt by now.

  • Viking_Sarah_1 Sarah the Crazy (@Viking_Sarah_1) reported

    @finchoid Joking aside, two of my mates are functioning ****** addicts. After beers once I chased the dragon with them. You know where you inhale the fumes? It was ****! They were out of it, I was looking for something to watch on Freeview. I was actually quite disappointed.

  • chrishainstock media:man (@chrishainstock) reported

    @JakTrident @cavaliers_rock @bbcdoctorwho to fully understand the Dr Who sound issues it would be useful to discover who was watching on what platform. E.g. iplayer, Freeview, iplayer HD, BBC though SKy etc - Can I ask what broadcast system were you listening to?

  • choctopus Leah Mountford (@choctopus) reported
