    @SuperRetroid @jonesthescribe @MrTom Fair point. :) And in fairness, I have never had to use an internal Freeview in a telly in over 14 years. I always thought they'd use the aerial, not the leftover debris from Sky.

    @nowtvhelp It’s ok they’ll tell to do the exact same things I’ve done already. It’s working now but for how long. And your live chat very rarely works. Or there’s a long wait to speak to someone. When the passes are finished I’ll just cancel and stick to freeview amazon prime and Netflix

    TikTok's latest trend is based on Adult Swim and the channel titles or whatever and... I grew up with Freeview television. I have no idea what's going on. I'm so lost. This is nearly as bad as when I tried to watch Phineas & Ferb with people and had no idea what was happening.

    @rogermosey @bbcnickrobinson I'm bothered that the free-to-air service that is Freeview seems to be on the decline. Watched "the other side" yesterday and the signal was interrupted badly several times.

    @paramountco your @My5_tv service needs a lot of work doing on it it keeps freezing and not starting programs from the catch-up menu on Freeview play.

    Anyone else experiencing poor Freeview reception on some channels this morning? Probably something to do with atmospheric conditions. Sporadic E?

    Bev R (@brightwhitemoon) reported

    @PA That is really bad . On Freeview which is all many people still have there is almost nothing worth watching and now one thing that is has been cancelled. As a BBC defender It’s getting harder .Like the NHS slowly being dismantled

    @barton_jw @virginmedia I got so fed up with the price going up and up and the service getting worse and worse. I eventually told them stick their contract and went to BT and freeview Good luck cancelling though - they really don’t make it easy. Possible - but very difficult.

    @WarphobblerKaz @RslewisSally Dr. Google says the last Cathode Ray Telly was sold in 2000. So that's what we've got. I use it as a screen to play DVDs and belong to a DVD rental service. Definitely no.HDMI slots.Its got freeview so OH can watch his quiz programmes

    @spuddemos @ITVX There's an app for your phone or computer or your TV (like BBC iplayer). But if you only get terrestrial channels or Freeview "live" on your TV, you might have to get someone to help you set it up.

    Looking at TV Schedule on Freeview what a load of crap. The best television 1970-85 Present day comedians are performers without wit
