    @LewisHamilton @SilverstoneExp That may be the case Lewis. If you really want to inspire the next generation. F1 needs to be on Freeview. It willl never happen though.

  • niksibley Nik Sibley (@niksibley) reported from Coventry, England

    Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

  • Mark2w Mark Walsh (@Mark2w) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    Flying ******* knee...just watching UFC 239 via the retro route. If it ain't on freeview on BT then that's not a problem, I've been watching this since '93. #masvidal is a monster

  • WearsideWorrier Christopher Beard (@WearsideWorrier) reported

    @Forces_TV hi, is there an issue with Freeview signal in Sunderland area. Can no longer receive it via the freeview TV or BT box on 96. Missing my fix of cult TV.

  • BrandinyourHand Roger Tomlinson (@BrandinyourHand) reported

    @jamesdoeser @bectu @MegaphoneUK The problem as most media are discussing, no viable alternative has been proposed handling issues of vast amount of free-to-air radio & television the BBC broadcasts, with no infra-structure technology that would enable any kind of charging mechanism for radio or freeview

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @TomRafferty4 Well of course it isn’t. Yes. You said on your other tweet that you think only Freeview viewers (the elderly and poor) should pay. 👍

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Ofcom requires public service channels to have slot in the top 24 slots of the channel list. BBC Three must be assigned a top 24 slot within 18 months. Freeview is doing this immediately. Commercial operators have expressed concern that the BBC will swap Three and Four around,

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    In the meantime, transfering the signal to a more sturdy temporary mast will result in 2,500 households losing Freeview, mostly near the Durham coast. This is because the mini-mast isn't tall enough to clear the edge of the North York Moors, blocking line of sight. -2-

    @itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @TomRafferty4 No, you’re not debating it. You said very clearly that only the elderly and the poor who watch via Freeview should pay. Of course as that’s 16% of the population they would get a hell of a lot less than they do. “Get less if you’re old or poor”. An interesting hill to die on.

  • Davcobbler Bill Craven (@Davcobbler) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice My freeview channles such as Quest and Drama hwve no signal. Others OK but not great quality. NN11 0RE using Anglia transmitter. Would I be better from Midland.

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @TomRafferty4 Yes, sure. Because you’re incapable of answering anything on the subject. You’re not coming at it from a position of knowledge. I mean everyone in the industry acknowledges the Freeview problem doesn’t have a solution. That’s a given. Or can you solve what the experts can’t?

  • doctorgreyboots Graham Taylor (@doctorgreyboots) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi we have had no freeview signal at all for about a week now. YO31 area of York, served by Bilsdale. Freeview status page for my postcode says there are outages in my area but I can't find any more information. Help!
