    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)

    @LibbyKerensky I find Freeview boring quite a lot of the time, I can flick through channels without finding much of interest. I don't use my Dusney+ streaming service as much as I thought though. (Probably cos I cant get it to work on my ancient TV)

    On Freeview 33 right now is the worst film ever made. I want to not watch it, but I can't. It sucks you in. #thehappening

    @williamjohnmcl3 I only realised it was on Freeview. Still never nor will ever watch it #ScottishIndependence6

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

    @EvanD @cleanfeed_ttvr @Channel4 It is. C4 usually carry two subtitle feeds. One teletext feed and one DVB subtitle feeds. Sky boxes still support teletext (even if subtitles is the only application left) Freesat devices support DVB subtitles only (same as Freeview incidentally).

  • MrWheeliebin Mike Edie (@MrWheeliebin) reported

    What has happened to Film4 on FreeView? Garbage low bit rate video compression. Everything looks like Lego.

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’m asking if its coming to Freeview Play, why would Sky know that? The BBC have said it’s coming to internet connected TV services (including Sky Glass). Freeview Play is an internet connected TV service it not? One not limited by manufacturer unlike Sky’s service.

    London's mayor Sadiq Khan wants the city to be net zero by 2030. So are cities part of the solution to climate change? Our guests @JenIrisAllan and @mohadow will be debating this on tonight's #DailyClimateShow. 🕡 6:30pm 📺 Sky 501/Freeview 233

    @arch1com Me. Freeview is crap, two different channels with Jaws 2 on at one point. Gone back to watching my DVDs. I've got a huge collection 👍

  • JeremyBennett JeremyBennett (@JeremyBennett) reported

    @MartinSLewis Amazon Prime and Netflix ! I clicked Amazon Prime above, because it is included in the delivery service so is effectively "free". We don't have Sky as we cancelled that many many years ago. We use iPlayer, 4OD, ITVOD, etc quite a bit too. For terrestrial we use HD Freeview.
