    @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

    Thanks Freeview tv (owners ) for going to take of free sports channel 65. Nought to watch as tv ****. Only channel I watched.

  • FastRSolutions FastR Solutions Ltd (@FastRSolutions) reported

    @4CAnalytics @The_Expert_Eye Oh yes remember that. We gave up on Lost when it went to Sky, as we only had Freeview back then & I heard the ending was poor. It had lost its way before then. I quite liked watching Manifest aside from her eyebrows, need to catch up on that, as it's now on Netflix

  • ukdtt UK Terrestrial TV (@ukdtt) reported

    Channel 106, BBC FOUR HD, has been added to PSB3 (England) (was unlisted [Service 0x4680]) #Freeview

  • UB5simon Simon Bye 🐟🔶 (@UB5simon) reported from Southall, England

    All those **** channels on Freeview and it's BBC News HD that gets the chop 🤔

  • andyAVAVsystems Andy AVAV Systems (@andyAVAVsystems) reported

    BBC4 HD & CBeebies are now live on the HD Mux PSB3. Just tuned in a TV & there they are. First time available on Freeview HD here, down South All Transmitters, inc Relays, should now be rolling it out

  • simdmuk Simon D M (@simdmuk) reported

    @VirginMedia_TV Now that Com7 Freeview MUX is causing channels to close in droves and gems like Forces TV going forever, how about reducing you TV package prices, as I have about 150 channels of garbage which I never watch. How you can tout "modern TV" is beyond belief .

    @Deji500 Dreadful take this, Poindexter. One of the single worst and ignorant tweets I’ve ever read. Slam on the 10 minute freeview and have a tug, you daft get.

  • BillSar93780206 Bill Sargent (@BillSar93780206) reported

    @mi06572550 @CliffHangerLON @danwootton At least RT was pure comedy. GB News is like a mental ward - it's a mirror image of the cabinet. Never have so many angry, ill-informed non-book reading freaks been allowed on Freeview channel 8,000.

  • alffy1977 Anthony Hudson (@alffy1977) reported

    @virginmedia I want to reduce my package as I can't afford my current price but all offers are more expensive. New customers get 100mb and freeview for about £30, I was quoted £60 lol. I'll run my contract out and the next day become a new customer for a better deal. Stupid scenario

  • orkitecht85 S P A R K Y (@orkitecht85) reported

    I-Player stream has basically frozen for Kendrick. My freeview reception is a bit crap. Audio fine, but screen not moving.
