    @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.

  • Oliver_Wok wok (@Oliver_Wok) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @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

    @emmerdale @ITV @WeAreSTV too far fetched now Emmerdale going down fast Been watching re runs on freeview [1998] was pretty dam good in those days

  • windust windust (@windust) reported

    @cleanfeed_ttvr Glass doesn’t show all available Freeview channels either if I’m correct. Again, rights issues?

  • CasualFisher DJ (@CasualFisher) reported

    @LGUKCare are you gonna bring Freeview Play to the 2020 TVs considering it’s available again on the 2021 sets? Really is a poor showing that All4 is still unavailable on the 2020 models

  • ArtySej Art Sejdiu (@ArtySej) reported

    @BethMorrey @Channel4 The endgame here is obviously to make C4 launch a 24 hour rolling Boozenight channel that is accessible a few pages down your freeview TV guide

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

  • lornypop Lorna Jane (@lornypop) reported from Wokingham, England

    So what’s on the telly today cause Christmas Day I ended up watching the Food Network channel, that provided more entertainment than the entire freeview network.

    @IndigoFast @glasgowswestend UKTV Play didn't need one, but it does now. However, the channels they own that aren't on Freeview or Freesat aren't on it. I know why I have an ITV account. They've brought in an ad-free premium subscription service, which is what a lot of commercial radio stations have done.

    @freesat_tv No, sorry. It's freeview. I appreciate your offer of support though nevertheless.

  • DSkippings Darren Skippings (@DSkippings) reported

    @redflag3rd @BebsDotter @tomhfh I can honestly say I have never once watched it, I deleted it as soon as it was put on freeview, so I didn't see it by accident.
