@bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

@edgarwright @broccantyzack @itv2 Would make for a brilliant friday/saturday/sunday triple header. Would love to break it down into how many times a year they appear on freeview TV

@SKAerials According to Freeview its a transmitter issue. Picking up signals from 2! Oh well. Might think about Freesat or just put up with it

@lenatrobins @Ursie27608090 Thanks ***, but it's not a retune issue. My Humax box does those automatically. 6% of the UK doesn't get GBNEWS on Freeview, & Buxton is amongst them 😬.

@AnnSkelly3 I've been with Talktalk for years, never had a problem. Only thing with Virgin is you don't get your freeview channels on your TV. Woman I work for got changed over to them and now can't get the channels she watches

@JackPittBrooke Going on to the Super League, would those owners have wanted games on the BBC or another Freeview channel? They might even have considered a Super League version of MOTD too much content not to put on their own streaming service or in a very expensive TV contract

The Freeview signal is also not helping out with the BBC Olympics coverage right now... over the Discovery+ again...

@MisterQuintus @scottygb @SkyUK Why would they brand a free-to-air channel that would show non-premium programming? There's a good reason Pick isn't Sky-branded... because it's got nothing worth watching. They're hardly going to tarnish the brand by making Sky One a garbage Freeview brand

@King_Buxton @JeffGrubb Had to look it up to see if my memory was broken and I guess they just renamed UKTV G2 then Gold stopped being freeview a few years later.

Wow! This thunderstorm is still doing it’s rounds. It’s even knocked our tv arial and satellite out. No signal on Freeview or Freesat. Thankfully I have a tv stick and an internet connection still.
