    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

    Hi!i!i!i! Does anyone have an old #freesat box they’re not using? I can’t afford to pay #VirginMedia for what is effectively a freeview tv package. (Has to be free-SAT as my aerial is too old a crap for free-VIEW). Thank you.

  • i3lade4life Karl Roberts (@i3lade4life) reported

    Only game I'm bothered about and ITV decides to crap out on Freeview

  • BillyKane0 Billy #Doom Kane (@BillyKane0) reported

    @GBNEWS You still have sound issues on Freeview, sync, echoes and low volume

  • hughster Hughster (@hughster) reported

    @vwcampervanaldr They've been paying for ads on it from day one. And no, I don't have issues with Skwawkbox/Canary because—and again, the TLDR of "poor analogy" applies—they're not Freeview TV news channels, not supposedly Ofcom regulated & not funded/promoted/defended by the government.

    @GBNEWS can't the signal on #freeview

  • mjCurnow Martin Curnow (@mjCurnow) reported

    Dad hasn’t been able to watch @GBNEWS. Can’t watch on freeview as their TV signal is poor so they watch everything through Sky. And it’s GB News HD & screen message is to ring to upgrade. I did tell him the picture quality has been pretty dire & an embarrassment to HD TV.

  • WhizzoUK Jason Wilson (@WhizzoUK) reported

    The picture quality on ITV4 on Freeview for Ukraine v Austria is worse than some dodgy football streams I've obviously never watched.

  • CilantroElPerro Ryan Richardson (@CilantroElPerro) reported

    @Ambraneri You would think so, but a cursory Google suggests ITV 4 HD doesn't exist on Freeview and my TV seems to agree. Really you'd think HD would just be the standard now. There's barely any point broadcasting football in SD it looks that bad.

  • JamesBe41078360 James Beswick (@JamesBe41078360) reported

    @Nigel_Farage @GBNEWS Oh no I don't have Sky or Freeview, such a terrible shame.

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported

    @zsk Just thinking, unless you have no Freeview or Freesat signal, why would you want to watch live TV via ITV Hub.
