    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 !!!

    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.

    @PrisonPlanet I spoke to ofcom: THEY have not shutdown RT: it is freeview & YouTube who have done this. I agree it is terrible to not let us hear all sides in this "democracy" we live in! Reminds me of stopping all opinions about Covid. Agree or not, we should have the right to hear all sides

  • grumblingginger Andrew (@grumblingginger) reported

    @FreeviewTV is freeview broken in Cheshire ??

  • ChrisWeir5 Chris Weir 💙 🇪🇺🇬🇧 #SackPritiPatel (@ChrisWeir5) reported

    @Otto_English @fascinatorfun It's only gone because of the EU ban. That meant the feed to the satellite (from which Freeview take the service) was shut down.

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @BreakIntoProg Went down at about 1645 when they lost their SES feed. Without the Astra satellite they can't feed the Freeview platform.

  • DJMidarezaki DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇭🇰🇹🇼 (@DJMidarezaki) reported

    @frankotron @HouseofCommons @NadineDorries That may or may not have affected the Freeview stream, which was also taken down.

  • PartickDriver Inde-Car Gordon Ross (@PartickDriver) reported

    @Dan_Dawson65 @graeme_from_IT Not local Freeview channels. They're not classed public service broadcasters. Content is not regulated in the same way. Broadcasting Scotland news content already exceed ofcom standards incidentally.

  • hypnodan Dan Jones (@hypnodan) reported

    @helenmccusker @neighbours Had the same problem, watched it all the time on BBC, then it went to channel 5 and I couldn't get C5 so had years of missing it and then have never watched C5 since having Freeview & don't buy TV guides anymore so have no idea what is on normal TV & never watch live TV anymore

    @yotanka77 It's free and will be available to you once it starts up. Freeview is a free range of channels including the mainstream channels. You can open an account with the service without a fee I believe (don't quote me on that)

  • pandorasrockbox Miryam Pan D'ora Rae ~ PandorasRockBox (@pandorasrockbox) reported

    @FreeviewTV why has RT been removed from freeview? We live in a democracy where we should be able to hear all sides to a narrative, even if we don't agree with it. Are we going down the Covid route of one sided info? Let us choose what to watch and
