  @MrCoolHandLuke @PairoMayniaq @Telegraph Much of the country can't and will never get Freeview or full fibre broadband. In future it will be the same with 4G and 5G and whatever comes next.

  Nooooo just lost our TV signal in the middle of @TheRepairShop Christmas programme. Freeview signal out across much of Cambs but until this minute we'd been ok. Thank heavens for iPlayer so we can see the rest later.

  @yellowhairdpunk How? Shits on ITV. They have replays literally on the "on demand" app. Yes, the showings aren't live, that sucks, but you can absolutely follow AEW watching regular *** freeview and getting PPV's.

  @KarenGr58411658 @DailyMail All paid for with the licence fee, the government does not fund TV transmission infrastructure, this is controlled and operated by the BBC. No BBC, No transmission network, no Freeview. This is why you have to pay the licence for all live TV.

  @UHD4k @Bobbinz @SVGEurope Afraid although I work for BBC Studios (which makes shows for the BBC) I have no insight into what iPlayer may support in the future. AAC was chosen for Freeview HD because Dolby had no equivalent receiver-mix audio desc'n support in 2009ish when the platform was standardised.

  I have never missed watching terrestrial TV, it won't be a big leap to also cancel Freeview. I'll just read even more.

  Can anyone from New Zealand confirm if the Freeview is down or is it just my home?

  @BENEFITS_NEWS Well for a start the Freeview service is guaranteed until at least 2034 and likely to be phased out over a period of time; unlikely before about 2040. 'Freely' is currently being touted as the IPTV replacement - From about £70 for a set-top box; this price will drop dramatically.

  @cordbusters Hoping that the video resolution will be higher than the poor 544 x 576 on freeview at 720 x 576 at least

  @WhichUK For live events, internet speed isn’t everything. For reliability and lowest delay, broadcast TV still wins: Freeview, satellite or cable. Fibre streaming is great but usually behind “live”. 5G/4G/Starlink can work well, but depend more on signal, congestion and load.

  @PeteBritish Freeview is all I have, and broadband. I would never, ever, pay for Sky.

  @RidgeandFrost @WilfredFrost Once Freeview is turned off by this Government, ITV under American ownership will be a subscription model streaming service.
