    People who have Freeview - is it just a one off cost for the box or subscription and can you record stuff? (Am trying to figure out tv options and can't get virgin and sky i think you need a dish. Aerial is crap here)

    @LlamaBusiness @skytv Bailed on them last year, never looked back Unless you live in the sports channels, look at what you get for your £, then see what would be free on freeview/freesat & what is on other services like Netflix

    @LBC It's the 21st century, if we are to be forced to pay the BBC so that we can watch 'Freeview' TV or any other tv for that matter, it should only be a news & education, perhaps local radio service. It should be at most half the cost of a weeks unemployment benefit (£40 ish?).

  • BrokenTV Mark Gibbings-Jones (@BrokenTV) reported

    @GiNgEr_JaMeS Plus, it's a model that would remove BBC services from Freeview, a service used by... the elderly people with limited income that Dorries is claiming to be protecting.

  • jonwensley Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported

    @Jamie_Harte71 @MatthewStadlen How, technically, would you make it a subscription service for those who do not have reasonable internet access and/or Sky/Virgjn/BT TV, the base service of all of which cost more than the TV licence. >10 million people in the U.K. have Freeview.

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    I only deal with news about Freeview and Virgin Media UK. (And the soon to launch Virgin Media IPTV Network).

    @PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries There's plenty of companies out there. I see ads on some channels that aren't shown on ITV or Channel 4 or 5. Personally I'm for a hybrid model; ads on a skeleton Freeview service, with option of a paid sub on iPlayer for Premium and ad-free catch-up content.

    @GaryLineker BBC should be a choice.Cut down the waste & some of the ridicolous expense. Get a bit of sponsored advertising and I am sure those who wish to subscribe for the price of a licence fee will still do so. Should never force people to pay BBC to watch Freeview on a TV. This is 2022.

  • 85Aston Aston (@85Aston) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO Is the Freeview network the BBC as well? I thought that was Arqiva

  • FilledIre IreFilledMonkey (@FilledIre) reported

    @mrjamesob The entire freeview system, built and maintained by the BBC. The radio we listen to all over the world, Parts of the emergency broadcast system. The massive international footprint made by the BBC, creating huge goodwill for Britian. All destroyed because of these petulant liars.

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @williambecket @NadineDorries Hi William. The most popular way for pensioners to receive TV is via Freeview. The licence fee pays to maintain the Freeview transmitter network. Presumably this “pay rise” for pensioners can then pay for this?
