    @davehendon @eurosport @WeAreWST it isn't an issue to me as I can watch online, but why has freeview QUEST stopped showing the snooker?

  • illuminatus 🙄 (@illuminatus) reported

    @JaseHeeley It is at times like this that I am glad I only get the minimal Freeview service where I am.

    @ITVX pretty crap that ITV only have 1 channel in HD in 2022 on Freeview and none of them are on their App !!!!

  • pop_hill Pop (@pop_hill) reported

    @BritBox_UK @ITVX This sounds like a repeat if the Ondigital saga, became ITVDigital closed down and became Freeview.

    @QuestTV No transmission of Quest on Freeview 12. Have retuned the telly to no avail. Can pick up Quest plus 1 on Channel 70. No other Freeview channels affected. Is there a problem with Lincolnshire transmitter?

    Itv4 is absolutely horrible in standard definition 🤮 it's 2022, why aren't you broadcasting in hd on Freeview @itv?

  • MatTheExBot mat (@MatTheExBot) reported

    @dogdownlockdown @LostatLothric @adlow76 But surely you can eventually watch WSS on some sort of freeview service, no? What's weird is that Elgort's currently appearing in a show, Tokyo Vice, that's just started on the BBC.
