Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandAnyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?
-
Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, EnglandWarning, 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 !!!

kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandImagine 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.

IronWorks1990 (@IronWorks1990) reported@dskiuk2 @Danrocsky76 @cordbusters I went Paris last year and our tv where we stayed was through through aerial, 50 odd channels and every single one of the was HD. Freeview now is terrible in 2026, full of shovelware channels and hardly any HD channels, SD channels look awful as well.

Essex Baldy (@darrensharp73) reported@TalkTV @cjsnowdon @iancollinsuk I don’t necessarily believe a sub model would work, but as an initial step they should require subscription-based logins at least for their TV and web-based services (radio maybe less practical). Maybe just have SD broadcasts on Freeview and require streaming for HD due to practicalities (Sky shouldn’t be an issue). This way those who don’t pay (for a license) will find it hard to view, and it would also cut off more overseas users who view without paying.

Andy.✝️🇬🇧 (@Smeeghee) reported@GBNEWS Why don’t you broadcast in HD on Freeview!! Ffs, it looks crap compared to Sky!

Charles Stuart (@FurryfeaturesUK) reported@lippyent Star Trek (TOS). Every weekday evening when I’m not working on Legend, Freeview channel 41.

Oliver Scott (@Scottyyy06) reported3 on Sky, 1 (or 2) on freeview somewhere and 1 (or 2) on super league plus? Obviously easier said than done but would help grow the game

His Grace, The Lord Godpikachu, Earl of Doncaster. (@Godpikachusan) reported@TheMekon_Venus at one point Bread was being shown on an endless loop on the "Thats entertainment" freeview channel, alongside "man about the house" and "Steptoe & Son". I never found bread to be funny or entertaining in any way, and other than the phrase "lilo lil", it is not memorable.

Chrissyboy (@christo08801887) reported@DVDfever Wtf are you talking about? I'm watching on itv! My TV uses Freely not Freeview. Can't change that!

Blake (@BlakeAntcliff) reported@SheLovesTweets @theipaper Freely TV's are the same as Freeview and Freesat, the problem is Internet only doesn't take into account people who live in blackspots and barely get anything much better than old school dial up. Nor does it account for anyone who doesn't want/have broadband.
