    @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

    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

    @Darrenjs68 @BBCNews Yes. Its almost like all those hundreds of other channels on yr Sky box or Freeview service don't exist.

  • ScotRamsay Scot Ramsay (@ScotRamsay) reported

    @lennylaw When you have 6 live TV channels available to all on Freeview, and you show the same thing on 5 channels, and close down the sixth, that's just bollocks.

  • sadmanontheleft Jack Boag (@sadmanontheleft) reported

    As someone pointed out, Channel 4 didn’t broadcast Diana’s funeral, putting on kids cartoons instead. It’s kinda their job so that people on Freeview can watch something else while the others broadcast the gloomy ****, particularly in a pandemic where you can’t leave the house

  • AlistairMay Alistair the Unproductive (@AlistairMay) reported

    @oashton88 @FinishedZine BBC is a subscription service too. But there's a host of other channels on freeview.

  • juneandnoz June Taylor (@juneandnoz) reported

    @scott_steve It is important. But if you don't want to watch it Freeview and Sky are doing other stuff. So change channels. Not a problem

  • watford1881 Stuart Cashmore (@watford1881) reported

    Why is Hive Live Match Live Tab not working @WatfordFC Only Freeview tab is available I've secured my seat so I can watch @davem2612

  • vinceunlimited Vince (@vinceunlimited) reported

    @jimwaterson At least iPlayer is broadcast via an App on my smart TV therefore gets broadcast as HD. Freeview cannot managed HD on any more than 5 channels and BBC4 ain't one of them. SD is visually poor in big flatscreens

  • xAbbierose Abbie Sims 👩🏼‍🦯 (@xAbbierose) reported

    Anyone else unable to get 4seven on freeview? Says service unavailable but is working on freesat 🤔

  • Aurora_UK_LAH Lisa Hetherington (@Aurora_UK_LAH) reported

    @AlanFisher Hi Alan, have you any idea why Chauvin trial has been removed from Al J UK Freeview news? So angry/disappointed as was following non-stop coverage for 8 days then went off without explanation yest! Feel let down. Thanks for your excellent work incl impeachment trial.

  • PabloAllelli Pablo Allelli (@PabloAllelli) reported

    @GaryinScotland @mandapen Where can't you get Freeview? I can't get all the Freeview channels as I'm about as far away from a transmitter as you can get in the UK, and its not helped by my rubbish aerial, but I can still get at least a couple of dozen channels, even on a bad atmospherics day.
