    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)

  • 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.

    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

    @WhoreAnnoyed @cbdoilbuzz @LancsPolice Get a job will you instead of sitting all day watching freeview and dreaming up **** on the internet. Weirdo

  • tim_balance Tim Hallas (@tim_balance) reported

    @barton_jw @virginmedia I got so fed up with the price going up and up and the service getting worse and worse. I eventually told them stick their contract and went to BT and freeview Good luck cancelling though - they really don’t make it easy. Possible - but very difficult.

  • francinemerry Francine Merry (@francinemerry) reported

    @TalkTalk I have permanent disruption of my internet connection when I use Freeview, particularly with my Disney+. Can you help

  • AndyWoodturner Andy Coates (@AndyWoodturner) reported

    OK...so the coaxial jumped from the Freeview box into the blueray box in it's own? "I never touched it." "I never touched it either." Fine. Then you have a sentient coaxial cable with a mischievous personality. "A what?" Nothing. It's fixed. "Oh, good. Can you look at the laptop”

    @WarphobblerKaz @RslewisSally Dr. Google says the last Cathode Ray Telly was sold in 2000. So that's what we've got. I use it as a screen to play DVDs and belong to a DVD rental service. Definitely no.HDMI slots.Its got freeview so OH can watch his quiz programmes

  • colinm65290743 colin_m (@colinm65290743) reported

    @radioyumyum @motelcrossroads @radioyumyum it’s the old itv hub catch-up service, no app needed, type itvx on a browser safari/Google chrome/works on old laptop, or on a Freeview Smart tv itvx is alongside the other iplayer catch-up services.

  • melulater Melanie D. #CovidIsNotOver (@melulater) reported

    Bonus of the new Freeview Streaming service is that it is an app on the Panasonic TV in my bedroom and I can now watch all poor people's TV from my bed. And RNZ if I want.

  • SmilerTheSparky Pete (@SmilerTheSparky) reported

    What free/paid TV service do you have? We have Freesat ( because our Freeview signal is shite ), Amazon Prime & Netflix, although I'm considering binning the latter.

  • AboutEG About East Grinstead (@AboutEG) reported

    Anyone else experiencing poor Freeview reception on some channels this morning? Probably something to do with atmospheric conditions. Sporadic E?

  • seagull4a LindaD 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@seagull4a) reported

    Staying in a holiday cottage with BT TV. Not sure why anyone bothers to pay for this service. Far less decent choice than Freeview and seems to have nothing but back to back ancient repeats.
