  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    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.

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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…

    @Channel4 can you fix the uplink. England match keeps going pixelated like it does on a satellite feed. Watching on Freeview HD

  • Raxor1Robin Robin Taylor (At home 🏡) (@Raxor1Robin) reported

    @JellyTotPixel @bbcmtd It's the signal not the equipment that's causing the problem even with HD freeview this problem still happens in some areas of the UK, where I live you can't get it with a portable HD receiver, I have to use satellite. as Freeview don't work well.

    @GRALCreates @tvukzone Stop tweeting crap . It has an ofcom license is available on satellite & freeview so that’s your answer.

  • 1Spookybooks Spookybooks (@1Spookybooks) reported

    @newt_kiters I guess when I get round to actually get sky, I won’t need a dish or a set-top box or anything. I’m assuming it will come straight through the TV through the Internet. The trouble is I don’t watch a lot of TV I’m usually listening to music or out walking. Only Freeview

    Usually use my actual Freeview but think the temperamental weather is causing a few breaking up issues. 🙄😒 Definitely think I'm in a bit of a delay. #BeyondParadise

  • KcD_PhD Kacie D (@KcD_PhD) reported

    Fellow neuroimagers! My RA has a Mac and I'm a PC user. On my end, freeview opens with no problems. On her end, she gets the message "Segmentation fault". IT has tried to help to no avail. Is there some Mac secret that y'all can share? Thank you! @FreeSurferMRI

  • Toasty83 Dean (@Toasty83) reported

    @creag123 @goldchannel Absolutely agree, Gold would be a great addition, Sure it's not the same channel it used to be, But there could be a fix, Extend the gold brand to drama, Include gold comedy. And gold itself in its original form to Freeview, with the spin offs left with subscription TV

  • pam_cabot Pamela Cabot (@pam_cabot) reported

    Pam's Pick of the TV GUIDE: 'Doctor Zhivago' 1965 Directed by David Lean. Starring Omar Sharif (once seen never forgotten) 🥰 On @BBCTwo at 13:15 Not seen it for a while. No adverts & Subtitles - Always a plus. P.S. I keep to Freeview channels as I don't have Netflix, Sky etc 📺

  • damoxl Damo (@damoxl) reported

    @Mark_P0x0n @LucyMPowell But I might want to watch something on freeview that requires adverts & a properly costed budget to fund (not BBC) So why should I pay for the BBC when their model is at best a tax on live TV of any sort? This is where the BBC falls down in the modern era, it's simply outdated
