    @tvchrisstewart Yep, it's exploiting the sick to charge £7.90/hr for Freeview on very poor equipment. But don't blame Tories, blame New Labour. TV sets came in 2000 as part of PFI commitment to give all patients access to TV, as long as they paid. Patient power, they called it. Blair's a ****.

    Daughter's TV has switched off this morning! Changed the fuse in the plug thinking may just be that but nothing! Changed the HDMI cable! Nothing! Disconnected her console to show Freeview TV, still nothing! FFS! 🤬🤬 Short term solution - she uses TV in lounge in her bedroom

    Anyone else noticed @FreeviewTV HD reception is exceptionally bad in London this morning? A bit of a lottery since the frequencies changed but I can usually rely on BBC1 and BBC2, fine last night, unwatchable this morning. #freeview
