    @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

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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.

    @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

    @SamsungUK bad enough I lost access to BBC HD freeview channels when I bought a Samsung TV, but now all BBC channels have gone? Is it a London transmitter issue or part of the continued fall out between Samsung and BBC? @BBCOne

    @TalkingPicsTV @valentepencil Here in the central region, during heavy rain most of my Freeview channels occasionally pixalate and lose the signal (though strangely not the BBC channels), yet my sister in the Anglia region only loses the BBC channels...
