    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

  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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.

  • 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.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

    You need to have a webpage showing realtime Freeview problems. It's a huge waste of time trying to guess if Freeview is working in tropo affected parts of the country. @FreeviewAdvice @Ofcom

  • ITVXhelp ITVX Help (@ITVXhelp) reported

    @aitchstone Hi 👋 We upgraded our tech to offer more content and improve our overall app experience. A big part involved updating our content protection to keep our shows copyright-safe. This tech is not supported by some Freeview devices and is no longer compatible to support the ITVX app.

  • lysandrenation Augustine (lucien lachance my beloved) (@lysandrenation) reported

    @LORDCANTl i loved watching it as a kid on TV ive only ever had freeview and it aired on like 1 channel and then one day it stopped worst day of my life as a 7 year old

  • bigwows Bigwows is elsewhere too (🦣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿)💚🤍💜 (@bigwows) reported

    @virginmedia Last I looked, inflation was at 10%, not over 30%. ‘Excellent value for money’ is a claim only customers can make, not you. We mostly watch the BBC and Netflix, so why pay 4 x what Netflix charge when there’s Freeview and iPlayer for a hundred channels that never get watched?

  • SS401 Paul Rogers 🇺🇦 🜃 (@SS401) reported

    Our Freeview has completely crashed - no signal on any channel. Is it just us? @AboutEG

  • feetsby Colin Troy 🇺🇦 (@feetsby) reported

    @NMBCo @hardistymark Pretty sure East Midlands Today is a standard definition signal slapped into an HD channel. Just got freeview to save money, back to the ol’ ‘High Def not available in your area’ message. If we want to see our news broadcasters in high def, we have to see them down the pub.

  • AboutEG About East Grinstead (@AboutEG) reported

    Spoke too soon. Our Freeview signal has just gone off. @SS401

  • drew3107 Killyfornia (@drew3107) reported

    @adamf2384 "Alexa, Newcastle United Will Never Be defeated", "Also, what times the babestation Freeview"

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    No freeview signal again. So annoying because we can watch online but you have to know which channel you want to go onto.

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf @ mastodon.social 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @TheBlueUlysses #ScourgeOfTheTVChannels & this **** Daily Fail wannabe TV show both are blocked & not available on my freeview recorders & TVs.
