    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.

    @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…

    @michaelhogan I'm reading from @New_Adventures that @SkyArts is now on Freeview channel 11, but when I tune in, it's still Pick channel. Any help please?

    @ElaineYoung94 They have a children's lottery in Scotland. I know.... good cause , but a bad name. I got a Scottish sky freeview card for 12 Euro from some crowd in Sligo when I cancelled my sky subscription. So I watch Scottish ads on sky.

    @MarkSharon_DP @paullewismoney That looks intriguing. Is "Woke TV" a new streaming service or can you watch it on Freeview?

  • poshfanupnorth Mark (@poshfanupnorth) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice hi, im having trouble receiving drama (channel 20 freeview) on all sets in my house. All other channels fine, although sometimes the picture breaks up on them.

    @angieb_blasko @PeteBakewell We are not aware of any problems. How do you watch us? Freeview etc.

  • MayneLesley Lesley Helen Mayne (@MayneLesley) reported

    @evilscootus I love sbs on demand and as I access directly through my smart TV I don't have any problems. I find that if I go through freeview it takes ages and searches are almost impossible.

    @MNotts19 @thefreepress2 @TheProleStar we only had our licence to watch PMQs...we cant get freeview signal here and stopped virgin tv too pricey and paying for so many free to air channels. After GE i stopped my licence and wrote official complaints. £12 a month better off!!

  • margatesunsets Fiona K. (@margatesunsets) reported

    @HabberleySteve @dancludlow @ShirleyMadin1 Andrew Neil is fronting a new news broadcasting service in the New Year. Called GB News, I think! It's going to be on Freeview, which I can't get! I use Freesat.

    @willhowells I remember how they f*cked even that up. I missed the TV address because I was watching a freeview channel it wasn’t on & there was nothing to point to a channel it was on. & the text message arrived days late & iirc the link in it was broken. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 imperfect but better.
