@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

@Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

(@sugarcanebook) reported
@virginmedia Also, losing all of our recorded programmes and movies yet again, unable to pre record any Xmas TV or movies, losing all of our favourites and our series links. FreeView and catch up have rendered the Tivo service sold to us as obsolete and we've not been offered any compensation

(@ArmchairRN) reported
@theAliceRoberts @BBCTwo @JohnnyFlynnHQ I’ve been watching a previous series on a freeview channel. One of the episodes featured an Anglo Saxon cemetery, and three of the skeletons had been laid out on tables. One of them showed battle damage to the bones, where a sword had sliced part of the shoulder, hip and knee.

@FreeviewAdvice I have the #Freeview app on my phone, but no login seems to be required. So I now have a #Freeview equipped TV. Do both instances know it is me?

@LittleBoats2020 I cannot fathom the complacency of the British over this but the big problem is that the media cover up is working. A Freeview channel would be nice with back 2 back footage as seen on here of the slimy little wrongans getting caught every day of the ******* week.

Still can't quite believe Cleese, who could have worked for almost any TV network in the world over the past 25 years, is going to do something for something at the arse-end of Freeview that no serious journalist or broadcaster would go near.
