  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

  • Dave22552702 Hullpup (@Dave22552702) reported

    @MontagueTerrie Probably best to talk about it before 11 then watch it on the Freeview adult channels. Masturxxte then fall asleep. Then start worrying about the whole Covid **** and how the Govt.wants to cull us in the morning.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @SarahLoudon1 @PacerCommander There is also a Freeview advice line on 03456 505050 if you continue to have problems.

  • Deborahj_Powell Deborah Powell (@Deborahj_Powell) reported

    @dougmcfarlane41 At least it takes your mind off Freeview I suppose. I might have to rethink my "that doesn't happen in the UK" approach to dealing with Spanish bureaucracy and customer service agents.

  • ChiefScrobbler Chief Scrobbler ✝️ (@ChiefScrobbler) reported

    The 2005 film 'Kingdom of Heaven' is currently on Freeview ch33. The times I've seen this but never in its entirety! I always seem to find it by accident and end up watching a big chunk of it.

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @lulu02608 Hi Louise, unfortunately LG and Digital UK were unable to reach an agreement for a Freeview Play device in time for the rollout of LG’s 2020 TV range, and this is why our 2020 models don't support the All4 app. (1/3)

  • lalaburrow Jo-Anne Burrow (@lalaburrow) reported

    @LiamcBakes your series of #GBBO is showing now on Food Network, Freeview 42.

  • oliverm_uk Oliver Marshall (@oliverm_uk) reported

    Just spent nearly £1000 on a new @Sony TV and the freeview experience is terrible. For those of us that still watch real TV, I feel very let down. Definitely buying @Samsung next time.

  • seaghanMK Seaghán🥊🎭 (@seaghanMK) reported

    @a516digital @BBC Thanks done all this. As I have exactly the same issues with BBC FOUR HD on a freesat box (itv/bbc type) which runs off a different dish and on a different tv I really don’t think on this occasion it’s me or my equipment. SD fine. Freeview HD also fine. All other channels ok.

  • anon20421494 anon (@anon20421494) reported

    @FreeviewTV Would love to if the entire freeview network was not down.

  • WarGit Lord WarGit, a Tom Nook subsidiary (@WarGit) reported

    Public Service Announcement: In ten minutes time, the Paramount Network (UK freeview) is going to be showing "Exit Wounds", a 2001 Steven Seagal film that your instincts and remaining sanity would scream at you must surely be awful but which is, in fact, extremely good.
