  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

    Watch Vanessa on Sky 522, Virgin 606 and Freeview 237 from 4pm-7pm: 🔸 Is Gary Lineker damaging the BBC? 🔸 Police Federations asks for 17% pay rise for officers. 🔸 Hancock was told to turn down China Covid lab leak claims.

    @mrdanwalker @GaryLineker It’s time to end the license fee and allow viewers freedom of choice. With the plethora of subscription and Freeview program providers, it’s no longer necessary to have a government sponsored public service provider, with all the inherent issues about partiality that it brings.

    @mikechildmusic Hi Mike, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • chrisjlatimer 15 minute Chris (@chrisjlatimer) reported

    @Mancman10 You could even have a tax paid somehow to fund the work in upgrading Freeview etc. I just don’t believe and never have the bbc should have a fee attached to it

    @jemmaforte No worries @JuliaHB1 is a champion of preventing cancel culture. She'll campaign for it to be shown on freeview TV.

  • PaulCarmichaelV Paul Carmichael (@PaulCarmichaelV) reported

    @SZgoesCrazy @BBCBreaking I think that programming for disabled people, educational resources for children, maintaining the Freeview transmitter service for the poor and elderly is all worthwhile. You apparently don’t. We can agree to disagree.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @WhoPotterVian I never had an issue with ITV Hub but ITVX just crashes all the time. Took their advice eventually and uninstalled it and reloaded it and now it doesn't work at all. And it works on less devices than it did before - even on a new Freeview Play device bought just last year

  • into_de_void DeVoid (@into_de_void) reported

    @kelvmackenzie Can anyone answer a question for me? If the TV licence is specifically for the BBC, why must I pay for a TV licence if I "watch or record TV on any channel - via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview, Freesat)" I don't ever watch BBC channels or use iPlayer....????

  • HeadingtonBard Alex Aris (@HeadingtonBard) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Are there known to be any maintenance problems in the OX3 area? At least 50% of our channels disappeared yesterday and haven't come back. No channels 1-6 and a mixed range afterwards. I have checked the Manhattan Freeview recorder and aerial connections as well.

  • CliveRoper Clive Roper (@CliveRoper) reported

    @TalkTV Why is the picture quality on Freeview so poor compared to GB News or even online?
