    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)

  • 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.

    @FreeviewAdvice my Freeview as lost channels . Carried out a retune but still channels missing including ITV. Is there a problem in South East ?

  • Bplwcml ♿ Mike (@Bplwcml) reported

    @bt_uk Well good news and bad, the good news is the guide is back on, the bad news I've only got my internet channels 340 onwards working, so I think it's a local Freeview issue with the terrestrial channels

  • Kewjonrichard wife seeker (@Kewjonrichard) reported

    @roger44 @FreeviewTV Wow 3 hours no signal in Swindon what do we get let me tell you. No apology. No explanation. No idea when freeview returns. Total silence. Maybe you need better staff. Better customer service and maybe a new brand, I suggest you try crap tv it's discriptiveand and true. 🤔

  • JCLMackn John Macknight (@JCLMackn) reported

    @bbcpointswest Why no reports on Freeview transition problems in the region. We would like to know about massive outages in last 24 hours

  • LukaMoric14 Brian (@LukaMoric14) reported

    @shattenstone Totally agree Lots of great arts programmes over the years Will they find a home elsewhere or quietly disappear? Has the BBC seen Sky Arts channel on Freeview and thought, that's it, we don't need to bother anymore? Is it the new DG plan to dumb down?

  • Marcooni Marcooni (@Marcooni) reported

    Never get bored of watching 'Foul Play' with Goldie Hawn, Chevy Chase, Dudley Moore and Billy Barty. Just started on Talking Pictures TV, Freeview ch 81

  • Al_Hine Al Hine (@Al_Hine) reported

    @rewind_ttvr Funny how the Beeb use the time difference between digital platforms excuse to not have an onscreen clock, yet @BBCRadio4 broadcast's the Greenwich Time Signal. Radio 4 is on multiple outlets - all a couple of seconds behind LW / FM / DAB / Freeview / D-Sat etc.

  • auto_tech_pilot caroline mckenzie (@auto_tech_pilot) reported

    @daztraction @smokeybarkid Which is fine while Sky Arts is still on Freeview, a problem when that (inevitably) stops...

  • ttandfinn Thru Thick & Finn (@ttandfinn) reported

    @somefinnspecial So I've checked out Sky Arts in the UK. If u are a Sky customer you can download or watch back the CH doc. Keep your eyes peeled for a repeat on freeview. Certainly nothing I can see in next 7 days 🧐

  • Kennyg7862 Kenneth Gollop (@Kennyg7862) reported
