    @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.

    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…

    @FreeviewAdvice My Freeview channels were broken up so I tried to retune, and only South TV channels came up & only BBC1, BBC2, BBC4 and the children's BBC channels. So I tried retuning again and I can find not ONE single channel. Please help me. Thanks

    @stevebone1 @leethommo 82 freeview - do re-runs of great series. Currently re-running "Secret Army", which was an 80s series about getting British aircrew back to Blighty when they have been shot down. Allo, Allo was a comedy based on it.

    SkyNews: Boris Johnson is being urged to use PMQs today as a "golden opportunity" to issue an apology over his claim that Sir Keir Starmer failed to prosecute Jimmy Savile. Health Minister Ed Argar joins #KayBurley to discuss. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

    @whatuptkhere The "freeview" apps now all require a sign in to watch the free to air streams. It's not enough to just sit through ads any more, they have to capture your personal data too.

    @BBCiPlayerForum I don’t understand why iPlayer has stopped using a grid channel and programme finder for everything that is showing on all the iPlayer channels? It’s a huge omission, makes no sense… I have to use the Freeview app on my phone to see what’s on. BBC pl fix!!

    @karlbeeby @Vlad42250421 @SueSaffa If that's what this dictatorship wants to do, then let's go for a subscription/lo advertising mix, ditch the regional & BBC World functions, slim down a bit, gain real independence, less Interence & Gov can deal with Freeview & pensioners subscriptions. BBC still a global brand.

    @kennyboz67 I only have a Firestick, there's no Freeview TV signal here alas. I'll investigate though, ta.

    @NYorksPolice This is obviously a hang over from the Bilsdale transmitter problems. As far as I am aware, Harrogate has good Freeview coverage now. If not from Bilsdale, then from one of two temporary relays set up by Arqiva.
