@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.

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

@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.

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@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.

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

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.

@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.

Public Service Announcement: In ten minutes time, the Paramount Network (UK freeview) is going to be showing "Exit Wounds", a 2001 Steven Seagal film that your instincts and remaining sanity would scream at you must surely be awful but which is, in fact, extremely good.

@HammerGothic @BritBoxHelpUK P.S. Other episodes of Bergerac had it pretty bad, too. One ended with a scene of an armed siege of a house: on the Freeview channels, all real footage of this was removed and then replaced with still photographs. Censorship is bonkers.

@lulu02608 Hi Louise, unfortunately LG and Digital UK were unable to reach an agreement for a Freeview Play device in time for the rollout of LG’s 2020 TV range, and this is why our 2020 models don't support the All4 app. (1/3)

Just spent nearly £1000 on a new @Sony TV and the freeview experience is terrible. For those of us that still watch real TV, I feel very let down. Definitely buying @Samsung next time.
