  • 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)

  • 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.

    @Sir_Woofingtons If you want to pay for it, shouldn't there be a choice enabling you to do so, but others not to do so? I don't see why they just don't go ad-funded on Freeview like every other network, with the option of subscription on iPlayer for ad-free catch-up and premium content.

  • suzysasha elizabeth scott 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@suzysasha) reported

    @Patricia344130 During the week it's fine but weekend TV is awful. I don't have Netflix etc only Freeview. I sometimes put dvds on of my fav shows. If you live alone there's not much else to do and the TV is company.

  • racefaceec90 adam cunningham (@racefaceec90) reported

    @discoveryplus hi can you do a programme telling the difference between **** and shinola,then advertise it repeatedly on all freeview channels here in the uk ad nauseum. thanks 👍

  • NightstrikeX NightstrikeX (@NightstrikeX) reported

    Seen Metallica a couple of times over the last two days on Freeview Channel "Sky Arts", what a worn out pile of shite. Thank **** I've never bought tickets to see them, it's like watching a pile of lack luster tired old pensioners trying to relive their glory years. #PastIt 💩

  • shellshell1285 Michelle Brierley (@shellshell1285) reported

    @CourtTV hello. Please can you explain why this service has been removed from freeview? I watched this daily. Thanks.

  • askthedood KevyD (@askthedood) reported

    Will @HumaxUK @FreeviewTV record boxes (presume Aura is newest) ever have @netflix app support? Looking for a new Freeview Record box for my dad.

  • Paul0554 Paul 🏳️‍🌈 (@Paul0554) reported

    @bbcintrowest when are you coming back to @bbcsomerset ? The current version is awful. All devon and cornwall. So have to use freeview to listen to you.

  • Lnx_t Zooltie (@Lnx_t) reported

    @LGUK Will LG 2020 TV's be receiving Freeview Play? Bought mine only last October and it's awful I only have access to BBC iPlayer and ITV Hub.

  • Nicky_Harrison_ 𝗘𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗸𝘁𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗡𝗶𝗸𝗶💁🏻‍♀️🇬🇧 (@Nicky_Harrison_) reported

    @JohnWal31582757 @GBNEWS Oh hang on, I've got some disappointing news. Are you with #Freeview, John?

  • iamnotmiserable Marc Smith (@iamnotmiserable) reported

    @utb_smith @jimbobity If Grimes was an advert he'd be one of those twenty minute long ones they stick on Freeview in the dead of night, flogging **** air fryers and granite based pans. A lot of talk and when the gear shows up its third rate tat.
