    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @madaboutHolly @Lee_JM75 Who's watching this bad boy on Freeview channel 70 ,Horror, right now😁💩💩💩

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

    @insimonated Thanks fella. I'm trying to get away from Virgin at the moment. Have sorted freeview now so will be calling to cancel all services shortly once I've sourced replacement WiFi provider. Virgin offered me a £2 reduction in my *almost* £100 monthly bill to remove the following:

    @StewartMcDonald @Ofcom I had assumed that RT’s disappearance from Freeview was down to UK actions (Ofcom). Turns out it was the EU!

  • warrenb1173 warren (@warrenb1173) reported

    @SkyUK Relying on streaming for all your tv content is a terrible idea. Having freeview as back up means you need an aerial on your roof, which negates the main benefit if sky glass!

  • mrneilmorrow Neil Morrow (@mrneilmorrow) reported

    @JohnSimpsonNews I think there's a difference between it being available on the Internet and on Freeview. German radio broadcasts could presumably be heard on a crackling signal in WWII. Not on HD on a 50 inch screen in my living room. Or do you see them as essentially the same?

  • LMilk007 LennyMilk007 (@LMilk007) reported

    Oh sweet jesus @StuartYoung001 im watching a 1976 film #squirm on one of your channels @TalkingPicsTV on freeview 82 . So an electrical storm is going to hit and earth worms are going to attack a town ..... apparently. All a bit weird but i watch it with wine help

  • DonPedley1 Don Pedley (@DonPedley1) reported

    Have questioned why so few stations on Freeview in BN12 area. The reply from Freeview indicates reception in the area is poor as only a relay service & many stations not provided. Here is the conversation & how to complain to improve the service if you agree (I want Sky Arts)

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @dramachannel The Freeview guide listings issue only affects Drama +1 displaying Dave listings.

  • jonie1303 jonie1303 #NHSLove💙 #corbynwasright #gtto (@jonie1303) reported

    @aunty_shirley @RhonddaBryant RT vanished off sky and Freeview in the UK when the EU banned the awful channel from using certain satellites so it couldn't broadcast in the UK

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @CarlElphick Hi Carl, We can help over the phone to retune the Freeview equipment. But do not have a service whereas we would re-tune the equipment for the viewers. We are open mon to Fri 9 till 5 and the number is 03456 505050. Scott.

  • LukeCustardtv The CustardTV (@LukeCustardtv) reported

    @MrDavidEBrown No, not at all. It's all becoming very fragmented. What will Sky have when they lose the HBO stuff? I've always been a Sky customer but I'll ditch them and go Freeview and have HBO Max when that launches. It's so confusing at the moment.
