  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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.

    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.

  • genders_jason Jason Genders (@genders_jason) reported from Walsall Wood, 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…

    @FreeviewAdvice we seem to have lost our freeview HD channels on all our TVs in PL7, is this a known issue?

  • FreeFilmsUK FreeFilms UK (@FreeFilmsUK) reported

    Unhappily, today's showing of Dog Day Afternoon (1975) starring The Cat in the Hat as Angus MacGyver has been postponed due to flu, but the really bad one. #freeview

  • HanMarshyVP Abby the Tank's Wife (@HanMarshyVP) reported

    @EarlFlorkin 1. I don't have a TV licence 2. I don't have HBO or Sky Atlantic 3. I only have an SD Freeview box which is super grainy 4. The only way I can watch it is it my friend illegally downloads it for me, which is obviously a bad thing

  • oohmissus Mothy (@oohmissus) reported

    @TheHutchPlay @TalkingPicsTV Looking forward to watching this. But my Freeview recorder is not showing ‘Series Timer Record’ option for this programme - are you able to fix this @TalkingPicsTV ? And if there’s an appetite for classic French TV, how about ‘Aeronauts’ and ‘The Flashing Blade’?

  • joemaki1986 joemakin (@joemaki1986) reported

    @jomilleweb I have no intention of cancelling my Amazon Prime, I use it for shopping, and am waiting for second series of Wheel of Time. Never had Netflix, nor any other streaming service, "making do" with Freeview. When wokes live in my shoes and pay my bills... maybe.

  • JonquilLucy Jonquil. (@JonquilLucy) reported

    @GBNEWS 'LIVE now: Sky 512, Virgin 604, Freeview 236, Freesat 216, YouView 236, Samsung 4326, Sky Glass 509, DAB+ Radio, GB News App, YouTube, Online.' And I've never seen one minute. Despite this my Twitter feed is clogged up with your tweets.

  • Richard94594538 Richard East (@Richard94594538) reported

    @MarkKen20510303 I wonder how long it will be before they want a TV station on Freeview/Freesat? Ofcom won't mind, they're happy to have rightist lies and hate rammed down people's throats.

  • Our_Lev Lev (@Our_Lev) reported

    @rdllopes @TankieHater @NadiaInBC RT had considerable reach. It was freely available on freeview/satellite platforms and also online. It was cut in a blatant act of censorship - what were they scared of? People asking questions? The stupid masses being brainwashed? The freedom-loving 'west' should be horrified.
