    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

  • 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.

    @SuperCroup Yes but the stuff for free on YouTube is not to my taste and usually crap. What's Kanopy, not on Freeview. I suppose I could put on a videotape.

  • Lemonhunny Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported

    @Toughtruth5 @StGilesHighKirk Nobody had to have it on 24/7. If you did, you're stupid. I probably haven't watched 3 hours all told, because amazingly in 2022, there are lots and lots of other free channels, showing regular programmes, even without subscriptions (Freeview etc). Or maybe, just turn it off?
