    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.

    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 !!!

    @speshmagiclady I wish we had foreign language TV on Freeview to help people get over their apathy around other languages - British people would be much more engaged with learning if the words were passively around them and they could just dip into watching a telenovela or something.

    @softwarescotty (Original reply now corrected). That's fair enough, and unfortunate for sure. But surely if Freeview doesn't cover you, the solution might be Freesat instead?

  • terencegarner terence garner (@terencegarner) reported

    @GBNEWS @afneil I can't get Freeview only Sky and I've never heard of YouView.

  • RebeccaHindle_C Rebecca Hindle (@RebeccaHindle_C) reported

    @TeamGBicehockey Oh dear I can't watch it cause freeview isn't working on bt again terrible channel

  • brundellfilimou Mike Benjamin (@brundellfilimou) reported

    @talkRADIO @mrmarkdolan The alternative funding. A wholly subscription model can’t be applied to radio and there is no UK news service not on freeview. So you could phase out the licence fee over and allow the BBC to compete for adv and sponsorship. I bet that will go down well with News Corp.

  • Crocidolite11 Crocidolite (@Crocidolite11) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Yep will be doing. Just noticed you’ve also put up my bill to over £100 now without any notice. I’ll contact to cancel you can come collect your equipment and I’ll go freeview. Absolutely shocking prices.

  • BarbaraRowley7 Barbara Rowley (@BarbaraRowley7) reported

    @bagga2007 Oh no! Do you have devices for streaming and an internet connection that’ll support it? The Freeview channels all have free apps to watch their programs. They should tide you over until you replace the TV.

  • TonyJWells TJ is not hiking (@TonyJWells) reported

    @smolrobots Fires up the Roku. So probably 60 seconds behind the freeview signal.

    GB News look and sound, which has just gone live on Freeview and YouView channels 236. If you can’t see it there, you may need to retune your TV. This guide will help.

    @a516digital Why freeview charge such extrodanary amounts I never know. Knowing dad, he will keep the sky, and ditch freeview if it's too much.
