    @FhilipGreen @notwillyoung86 @krishgm So there isn't 4k output via terrestrial television in the UK. Raise that with Freeview. Which is a private company, by the way. I'm looking forward to you moaning about ITV having the same problem? Sky output in 4k is minimal also.

    @talkRADIO The ignorance surrounding the model for the bbc is astounding. The biggest issue people have seems to be with bbc news. There is no news stations in the uk that are subscription only, even sky news is on freeview. In addition it is not technically possible for radio stations

  • chrisbardell Chris Bardell (@chrisbardell) reported

    @Turnip_Of_Doom @JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Yep, ITV/C4/C5 will never be able to pay for the entire running cost of Freeview. So it’ll close and they’ll go subscription-only.

  • gro_edu EduGro.Club (@gro_edu) reported

    @COYR26 @DeborahMeaden because without the BBC you wouldn't be able to watch the other free to air channels. The BBC run the whole Freeview service they depend on.

  • MamieTea AIMEE (@MamieTea) reported

    @SLUG_MrIBlack and as public money went into it, the code was shared with ITV, Ch4, Ch5. It innovates with loads of tech which it shares. It has public services like language transmissions and there was a section to help people switch to Freeview. What the plan about removing its funding?

  • martin_frasehog Martin F (@martin_frasehog) reported

    @RedemptionBroon @KrisGriffiths @JuliaHB1 It's currently 43p a day, which includes the cost of maintaining the Freeview transmission network, BBC TV, radio, iPlayer, etc. I have no interest in paying for Sky or similar. If that was £2 a day, it would still be a bargain. About the same as a high of street coffee.

  • Ems1965 Emma (@Ems1965) reported

    @Ian_gm_F @bbcpress You conveniently forgot to mention the radio stations, world service, website with free access to a whole range of educational resources for children, funding and upkeep of freeview infrastructure

  • chrisbardell Chris Bardell (@chrisbardell) reported

    @JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Explain how subscription service will work with Freeview.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @ledredman @jeremybear123 @JolyonMaugham There is a false narrative that Freeview can be phased out. Anyone who has watched anything live on Amazon or ITV Hub can tell you internet broadcasting is not up to scratch. Selling spectrum so people can watch shows on phones at expense of watching in HD on TV is just stupid.

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @wilsonfromnorth @NadineDorries What’s that got to do with educational resources every school/college use, maintaining Freeview transmitters so the elderly/poor have access to TV, having programming that is made for the disabled community? These things aren’t made by anyone else because they’re not profitable.
