    @dilusionalworld @glenpen60 @SkyNewsAust I have never watched it, we use the the station block of so I don't have to deal with tabloid TV BS, the station was a failure on pay-per-view so had to move to Freeview to get anyone to watch the biased BS their shock-jocks waffle on about, watching it can give you brain damage

    Woeful service from @skytv Time to change to freeview. You call customer services before 9. But no one wants to talk. So you get cut off 4 times. Poor CS.

    @nigelwUK @MatthewMarks42 @bobdvb Odd. It must be doing a 5.1->2.0 PCM fold-down rather than a 5.1 PCM output I guess. There is no stereo on Freeview HD when 5.1 is being broadcast. (On satellite there is a parallel stereo audio description feed)

    @OrdinaryGamers C'mon, I saw this **** advertised on TV all the time when I still had Freeview.

    @KatiKnitt That really sucks. We have the TV license here in the UK, but if you don't actually consume "live TV" (BBC, freeview, live sports, etc.) then you don't actually have to pay for it; in my case, all I use is YT, Twitch & stream subs. Shocking and aggravating that you're forced to!

    @FoxyLustyGrover Who funds those crap TV channels Shine TV etc? Why are they even on Freeview? How did they get there? Who decided?

  • andythelodge andy (@andythelodge) reported from Clifton, England

    @333peterobinson I've had nothing but problems viewing @RacingTV since they made me have @amazon Firestick due to no longer available on freeview

  • WokStation Wokstation (@WokStation) reported

    @dr_monkeyface @Superproprep @GuildOfMakers next door tried to pay me just for retuning their freeview tv! To them it's hiring in a skill they didn't have, to me it's *press two buttons and turn down their money*

    @TelevisionGold @TalkingPicsTV I've never seen this but don't have any of the options to watch it 😭 (only Now, Prime, Netflix - no Freeview/Sat/Virgin etc). Will it be available on your encore service?
