    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.

    @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.

    So now I have Virgin requesting their Hub back (no problem)… and telling me to disconnect the co-axial cable from their socket and cover the socket with a cover. Urm I can’t do that or I’ll have no Freeview signal.

  • Sophomania_101 Careful, I have Sophomania. (@Sophomania_101) reported

    @mettderk1 @ladbible Yep, if you don't wanna pay for their service use freeview etc, they're private company's you don't have to give them your cash, Why should I pay more because you don't wanna pay at all?

  • audio CharIieDiamond (@audio) reported

  • tarasis Robert McGovern (@tarasis) reported

    @delilahdirk @jonrog1 I support when I can, and bypass / pirate when there are unknown / ridiculous delays for something to get the the UK for watching / Europe (BUT I will still watch when it does come to Europe so it gets the views - be it Disney, Paramount+, Amazon Freeview, or whoever)

  • KingJimmeh ~Jimmeh~ (@KingJimmeh) reported

    @jonrog1 @Blankzilla It was never the content, or really the ads that were the issue. It was the tech behind it. I don't know about cable boxes in the US, but set-top boxes for Sky and Freeview and most built-in TV guides and systems for getting to content were slow and awful.

  • Touchwood1066 Grizzle Guts 🐸 (@Touchwood1066) reported

    @BBCBreaking Watch @GBNEWS for the latest on the government crisis. At the moment, it's @AlStewartOBE With news, comment, analysis on the issues. 236 freeview Forget the bbc itv sky etc. Go to GB NEWS

  • JEDlRAGE ☄. 𝙰𝙽𝙰𝙺𝙸𝙽 *. ⋆ (@JEDlRAGE) reported

    / GUYS IM PISSINGGGGHH I almost just applied for a "TV production" job for a channel on sky/freeview supposedly but I couldn't see what the content was, couldn't find it on Google, so looked it up on Instagram and wtf did I find??? ITS BASICALLY BABESTATION. ID BE FILMING -

  • simonhardwick Simon Hardwick (@simonhardwick) reported

    Main transmitters (FM/DAB/freeview) etc will most likely have backups but I remember in the big storm of 1987 that wasn’t a huge help, only one AM station (BBC local) managed to remain on air. Worth having some batteries for your radio next to your torch. /7

    @BBCNews I don't know of its a technical problem but my favourite BBC News program on freeview on ch 101 during the local news seems to have gone? Just faint water 💧 and going. Where are the pictures? A lovely beach? A competition every day for the best?
