    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

    @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

    @jackcox2312 Hi, Jack. The closest thing to Teletext on Freeview is the BBC Red Button service and it would be up to the TV to support it. Fraser

    @aliiscrying @JohnJohnNYC_ in the UK you buy a television license to access Freeview which is the terrestrial television service you can get with an antenna. The money goes to fund the BBC

    @virginmedia My brother gifted me a years subscription to Netflix, which then just automatically tapped £10 a month onto my bill & I had no idea how to cancel it. So £43 to £66 is a big leap for pretty much the same service I get from Freeview and the pubs WiFi next door.
