    @BenJSkipper I don’t have Freeview 😨 Is it going to interfere with my Sky signal?

  • HiberniaLife Mary White (@HiberniaLife) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi there. I know this is not your issue but someone i know wants to get RTE Irish tv in northern ireland but only a couple of channels are coming through. What can she do to pick them all up? Are some Irish channels on UK Freeview also?

  • craigsteeps Craig Steeples (@craigsteeps) reported

    @LouLCC Eurosport used to be on freeview so maybe worth a check. The lad who passed was best friends with a girl 2 doors down from us and he was always in their garden, didn't know him, but when they passed they always said hello. Very sad as seems he was pushed and couldn't swim 😭😭

    @GBNews I am on the IOW and for the last 4 or 5 days the Freeview channel 236 has not been working, no signal. Very disappointed.

  • HelsBels2525 Helen Bristow (@HelsBels2525) reported

    Today I've been working to Greatest Hits Radio and Smooth Radio. Mainly as I had to get stations on Freeview due to wangy internet, but I've never felt more middle aged.

  • SaffyBun Karla (@SaffyBun) reported

    @greatesthitsuk have you got technical issues? Cannot hear a thing on Freeview... Just silence from the middle of the last song 😢

  • SteveCatley1969 Steve Catley (@SteveCatley1969) reported

    @SteveBlythe @BBCSport Agree - rubbish screen on freeview - scores and ***** not showing correctly - v.poor BBC !!

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    Just a real shame that @BBCRedButton is only in SD on Freeview as the picture quality is very poor - poorer than usual IMO. They could easily have provided live coverage in HD by cutting the hours of @CBBC HD for the fortnight.

  • Zaack23 What good are notebooks? (@Zaack23) reported

    In related news, my god Freeview SD looks terrible, doesn't it? #HolidayThings

    @Nicky_Harrison_ @GBNEWS I know. Wonder if no support for my phone (s6). A real shame as every other news outlet app seems to work. Really wanted to watch GBNews online, especially as I refuse to pay BBC licence fee and thus have no Freeview/Sky/etc TV service.
