@MikeReadUK @TalkingPicsTV It’s a wonderful series but I struggle with it as there are no subtitles on Freeview. (Hint!) Any chance an observation by yourselves might kick such essential support into action so I can really enjoy it without missing chunks of conversation?

@AngelaMarston An awful decision. Can't help wondering if the BBC could have made a much better one somehow. Yes I know it will all be onlineetc but freeview has universal coverage.

I can't see any sign of #ChampionsLeagueFinal being listed, on poor man's telly (terrestrial / Freeview).. So much for it being the people's game. #ChampionsLeague

@RealMattLucas Poor decision. Of course that frees up a slot on Freeview for yet another channel showing repeats of ancient sitcoms - yet more Rising Damp anyone?

Sad to hear CBBC is shutting down. There’s not many kids’ channels on Freeview as is (or weren’t when I was a kid) & they made so many beloved shows. Such a shame

@arthistorynews We use what my OH calls the Council TV ie Freeview. (Refuse to pay R Murdoch or his crew any money) if they would leave it in a position where you could find it then that would help. Every retune seems to put it to a another Spot. Tv licence due for renewal as well.

@TalkTV Is there any reason why your Freeview transmission is so poor quality? It looks like YouTube 240P25 upscaled.

With more freeview channels being shut down and mainstream channels and production companies seeking only programmes and subjects which appeal to the lowest common denominator, it's more apparent than ever why platforms like YouTube are able to bridge that information gap.
