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.

@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.

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.

@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.

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

@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.

@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.

@fliceverett My first TV was a cast off of my Grandma which was B&W and for many years had a dodgy tube so that peoples feet appeared above their heads. I bought my second TV ( colour) from Boots in 1984 and only bought my current one because I was having problems with the Freeview box !

@BBCNews Oh poor thing diddums! When I was 20 you didn't have "Freeview" or a single channel to watch for nothing. And you went out when you could afford it. That encouraged you to work to better yourself. Zero sympathy.

Why does Pop (Freeview 206) broadcast at night? Who'd be watching? Wouldn't it be better to run the signal on another channel for non-kid's TV at night?

@JenBartram I came across an old episode of LOOK NORTH on my Freeview box the other day from 2020. I kept it because it had you doing a video diary of cutting down on waste. It was a bit like me when I vlog.
