    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    @m_arthur1 Hi Mick, Apologies for the delay in response. We are currently investigating the issue. Could you please DM your postcode to Freeview Advice. Melissa

  • David__Riddell David (@David__Riddell) reported

    @BigBearF1 F me this is actually bloody brilliant. My Grandad has started to lose it. My mrs went round to fix it the other day & he'd pressed the wrong button so it was trying to find freeview. He then did the same again the following day so called out a tv engineer

  • IMcMullenCISSP Ian McMullen CISSP (@IMcMullenCISSP) reported

    Good to see the urgency with which @arqiva have restored Freeview to the good people of North Yorkshire. Just the three weeks now without any service.

  • xsophiehoughton Sophie 📚 (@xsophiehoughton) reported

    @ShinraAlpha Has the signal not come back from the mast? Ours is back now, but we had to retune the tele to get freeview on

  • dwy6613 Dan Young (@dwy6613) reported

    Well, that's one way of clearing the 16 films on my Freeview recorder... After almost 10 years of good service it died today, taking the recorded films with it. Just ordered a replacement (and a new stereo to replace the 22 year old one that keeps skipping when playing CDs)

  • stevend21607552 stevend21607552 (@stevend21607552) reported

    @UKBabeChannels Preeti has just come off screen on Ch.674 on Freeview right now, at this rate I will never get through to her, tweet back to me

  • RomfordRoger Fraser McMillan ® ❤️💙 (@RomfordRoger) reported

    @CroydonExile1 @MarcWilliams22 I'm listening to it on BBC Radio London on Freeview TV. Couldn't take that Watford ****.

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Ah an update from Freeview (two weeks with no TV & Radio now) "the signal will return around the 28th August" the phrase "around the 28th" being key...it was "will return on the 28th"..... So, about the 5th September?

  • giantjossy giantjossy (@giantjossy) reported

    @TeessideLive Same reply from Melissa at Freeview since it started..."Sorry you've got **** all to watch,click on the link to get NO update whatsoever"....thanks Melissa

  • zawenaeb ZAWENA B (@zawenaeb) reported

    I swear #skybroadband is down at least every other week... was working fine until now. Wanted to watch something on freeview play but my smart TV runs off WiFi and currently have none. Good luck to my older sister who works remotely/from home with no WiFi shew screwed.
