    @gary_worden @cjssydney @cptcapitalg @FrogAlaPeche Poor people either don't have a TV or watch freeview.

  • 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

  • Pinklady66 Snoopy (@Pinklady66) reported

    @Sarahca34957734 @virginmedia @virginmedia that is a very good question . Why cant was the #ChauvinTrial not shown live on your network ?? Why are the freeview channels not on .???

  • Barfette Barfette (@Barfette) reported

    @helen_spirit1 Only watched couple times usually watch Sky News/ Freeview, signal been bad. BBC 1 is GHASTLY in my opinion, but I happenend upon GMB the actual day that Piers Morgan walked out. I now find it absolute garbage. Same league IMO as Schofield, Willoughby, Hammond and O'Leary.

    601 on Freeview and 981 on Freesat. BBC Red Button. You can watch the military personnel marching into positions for the funeral service.

  • TheMrnortholt Nick W (@TheMrnortholt) reported

    @dwchappie Dave, nobody who has bought a TV since analogue was turned off hasn’t got Freeview and those watching on TVs from before then will have to have a box to convert the signal.

  • BoroPessimist Marcus (@BoroPessimist) reported

    @longman751y2 @Paul_Coull87 @SkySportsNews Exactly the Championship has had big well supported clubs in it and the highlights are on some nothing freeview channel, and the live games get awful figures on sky. Without the big clubs the remaining leagues and clubs will die. Let them get the proportional revenue they deserve

  • PimlicoPlumbers Pimlico (@PimlicoPlumbers) reported

    Vaccination passport anyone? Just about to make the case for getting a system up and running before it's too late - live on @RTUKnews It seems this issue won't go away, so maybe it's time we just got on with it!!?? Sky 511 Freeview 113
