    @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.

    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

  • 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)

    @a516digital @TalkingPicsTV announced they were moving on Freeview a few weeks back. The moral here is never put your channel numbers on your merchandise. My beanie hat will be out of date 😢

  • top1percentile Nigel Bennett (@top1percentile) reported

    @danidotx Worth trying Al Jazeera on Freeview channel 235 for a different perspective on international issues.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital @hischeekiness Well on freeview, they will possibly merge or better still have a time shared service,. Either of those two can empty space for another channel. Such as talk tv in april. Who knows could be part of their plans!

  • BurleyNeo And Beans (@BurleyNeo) reported

    @PeterBoneUK @DefundBBC Would like a choice to pay for it or not as the BBC is not a critical service. Currently I pay it to watch other Freeview channels the BBC does not interest me but I have no choice. I have to pay them to watch channels that have adverts. Does not feel right at all.

  • SandraR76172345 Sandra Russell (@SandraR76172345) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working according to a service website I checked there are issues with tv reception in my area and may not be fixed until 17th, insulting really when I receive your letter telling me you are increasing your prices and has happened before so I’m now watching freeview

  • anthonychopra anthonychopra (@anthonychopra) reported

    @catstockholm @GBNEWS That’s ok yea i managed to see if the Tv Freeview was working and their Tv version in UK is working. prob they had an internet broadcast issue.

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported

    @KentHC_WX The @metoffice didn't even extend the Yellow Alert for Fog until earlier this morning. I don't think they expected it to reach this far South? Slowing clearing from Medway, here now, but expect it to return later at sunset. TV signal on Freeview was unwatchable last night!

  • Onesmallstep16 Onesmallstep (@Onesmallstep16) reported

    @kennethtwist @PeterBoneUK Then don't pay if the BBC is a subscription service. There will be FREEview. The poorest in society would appreciate not be threatened with fines or prison for watching television.

  • JillCollier16 Jill Collier 🟥 (@JillCollier16) reported

    @tinternetqueen @VirginMediaCorp I have a mixture. Plusnet for broadband and landline, recently moved to Tesco for very basic mobile. Both great customer service. Only use freeview telly, though.

  • EmmaStitt59 Emma Stitt (@EmmaStitt59) reported

    @HelloSanctuary no TV input on sky or Freeview. Contractor for this came this morning. Can't get into the AV equipment cupboard. Can't get through to sky. Utterly shambolic way to treat Tennant's. Who runs a business like this??
