    @MaxSkyNews @BBCNews My 10:30pm chocolate cold milk drink with the papers... I've moved already. Sky News app in 720p HD I reckon better than the SD freeview / freesat offerings.... Don't know what the BBC are up to by Mrs Angry from Tunbridge Wells won't be giving them anymore trouble one guess.

    @FreeviewAdvice I have the #Freeview app on my phone, but no login seems to be required. So I now have a #Freeview equipped TV. Do both instances know it is me?

    @ToeiAnimation In my early teens, there was this freeview channel called Kix. One day, a cool-looking cartoon called Dragon Ball Z was on (I think it was during the Cell Saga). Funny thing is I never remember the exact moment I found out how popular it was, or that it was an anime.

    @BenJohn45874515 Freeview was great in its day, but sd is so old now. Ive nothing against freeview, its a great service. But its very limited to what can be offered.
