    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…

    @archivetvmus71 Another programme I never watched in the 70s but I like now on Freeview. I like seeing the old cars, offices and street scenes.

    @UKTVPlayHelp It's not resolved at all. Sharp aquos tv and JVC tv. Tried playing through freeview play and casting via Samsung s22 Ultra. This app is terrible! It happens on no other. Disney plus, Amazon video, Netflix all work fine as do the ones on Freeview play.

    @Josneat @FreeviewAdvice I’m betting it’s the usual high pressure issue. When I lose my Freeview I use a link I’ve got saved to a high pressure map. If it’s high. That’s the reason it’s down. No point in contacting Freeview “support” as they are about as much use as a chocolate ashtray on a motorcycle!

    @dmfuerte @mikepompeo There's religious station on Freeview, every time I channel hop past it they're never talking about Christianity; can anybody guess who they're always talking about ?

    @ToeiAnimation In my early teens, there was this freeview channel called Kix. One day, a cool-looking cartoon called Dragon Ball Z was on (I think it was during the Cell Saga). Funny thing is I never remember the exact moment I found out how popular it was, or that it was an anime.

    @FreeviewAdvice hello! None of the freeview apps on our smart tv are working at the moment - we get a freeview error. Are there any issues at the moment?

    @MaxSkyNews @BBCNews My 10:30pm chocolate cold milk drink with the papers... I've moved already. Sky News app in 720p HD I reckon better than the SD freeview / freesat offerings.... Don't know what the BBC are up to by Mrs Angry from Tunbridge Wells won't be giving them anymore trouble one guess.
