  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • pepperpotdog pepper brierley (@pepperpotdog) reported from Oldham, England

    Just watching @JohnNicholRAF on #smithsonianchannel on freeview ch 57 d-day and the dambusters! Damn good watch!

  • Madz999 Mandy Jane (@Madz999) reported

    @Robbie__Bell @ITVX Just finished watching The Twelve - painful experience to say the least - ad breaks not close tent, sound issues, long black gaps - tried on Freeview and Sky and it’s just as bad either way! So glad I don’t pay for premium!!!!

  • rantyman Norbert Rantyman (@rantyman) reported

    All the BBC channels have gone from my Freeview…. Is this just my problem or anyone else finding this?

  • sadforsadboys castillo bIm | FAST TIMES 🇮🇪 (@sadforsadboys) reported

    @beth__moreton In saying that, my area doesn't have CITV (or the mux it broadcasts on) on Freeview as it's a relay. So I've never been able to access it via Freeview (but it can be on Freesat which is more of an expense to set up...)

  • clickclackk__ red ruby 3/3 (@clickclackk__) reported

    Rip CITV I’ll never forget watching Disney channel and Nickelodeon shows on CITV cos I only had freeview X

  • davidchscott David C Scott 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 🇩🇪 🇪🇺 🔸🏛⚽️ (@davidchscott) reported

    @jemmaforte No worries @JuliaHB1 is a champion of preventing cancel culture. She'll campaign for it to be shown on freeview TV.

  • TalkTV TalkTV (@TalkTV) reported

    Watch Vanessa on Sky 522, Virgin 606 and Freeview 237 from 4pm-7pm: 🔸 Is Gary Lineker damaging the BBC? 🔸 Police Federations asks for 17% pay rise for officers. 🔸 Hancock was told to turn down China Covid lab leak claims.

  • AlexTheGuiri Alex the Guiri (@AlexTheGuiri) reported

    @Glostermeteor @MattWWoolwich Nope. The BBC was given a significant uplift in the licence fee to implement Freeview in the early 2010s. It was then allowed to keep that uplift to fund the World Service (previously FCO) and ‘free’ licences for over 75s (previously HMT). Typically it has subsequently reneged.

  • UAhmed Usy (@UAhmed) reported

    @bluemoon_mcfc If BT or Sky get their **** together, creating their own show (of which they already have many) and releasing it immediately on a Freeview platform would be a winning move for them. They could even go the full way and employ linekar on it 😜

  • skyblue_England skyblue_england ⬅︎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 (@skyblue_England) reported

    @mrdanwalker @GaryLineker It’s time to end the license fee and allow viewers freedom of choice. With the plethora of subscription and Freeview program providers, it’s no longer necessary to have a government sponsored public service provider, with all the inherent issues about partiality that it brings.

  • SlightlyRobotic RoboticTextMongler2000 (@SlightlyRobotic) reported

    @dangermouse2 @alanshearer @DannoMkII The service isn't the BBC, it's freeview channels and other live TV channels. You don't have to pay it just because you own a device that could do that, only if you use it for that.
