    @KayBurley @BBCRadio4 Really..I've had to cancel my sky subscription as I could no longer afford it..I now rely on freeview..how very "80's" of me

  • biggerdeffer 🆃🅷🅴 🅵🆄🅽🅺🅸🅴🆂🆃 (@biggerdeffer) reported

    Hey Freeview, I don’t want to keep pressing yellow all the damn time, make it stop!

  • Defn28 Benjamin Barlow (@Defn28) reported

    BT digital is shite. Every time you turn it on, the telly resets and has to boot up again. Sky never did this. Suffice to say, we’ll be getting rid and I honestly just think we should stick with Freeview and the free apps. Digital TV is redundant

  • smurph25 Jamie Murphy (@smurph25) reported

    @bbcthree Maybe should've added a [*] on Freeview HD number, as it is not available in Wales (part time S4C HD service) and Scotland (BBC Scotland HD).

  • dgtwatter Dot on the Landscape (or portrait if you prefer) (@dgtwatter) reported

    WTF! Anyone else lost ITV, C4 and C5 on Freeview? Just rescanned the digibox when prompted and they've ****** off (technical term). Box now defaulting to BBC3 on channel 23.

    @htwcentral @sgordon_the87 @cleanfeed_ttvr I would say that would be a bad idea but to be fair Sky/Comcast are doing a good job with Sky Arts and I was seriously amazed they put it on Freeview 11 and not in the waste land of the epg.

    @DrewLawDesign A few saying Everett, I liked him in the 70s as a kid but I watched it the other week on Freeview and it was cringy as **** really really ****. Best left of n the 70s I think. Anyway has to be Ken Loach.

  • wozdm38 warren myers (@wozdm38) reported

    @bbcthree @BBCiPlayer So crap you actually came back to freeview...lol

  • tvark TVARK (@tvark) reported

    BBC Three returns to Freeview on Tuesday so you may need to retune your TV or set-top box. BBC Three will be on channel 23, DaveJaVu moves to 25. All other channels between 25 and 85 all move down 1 place on the programme list. Ideal World is now on 51, TJC on 22. Happy retuning!

    I don't watch Emmerdale any more, but I do like the terse episode summaries they put up on freeview. "Marlon bodypops. Something is loud. Terrible smell at the pub."
