    @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.

  • 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 😂

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

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

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • MatTheExBot mat (@MatTheExBot) reported

    @dogdownlockdown @LostatLothric @adlow76 But surely you can eventually watch WSS on some sort of freeview service, no? What's weird is that Elgort's currently appearing in a show, Tokyo Vice, that's just started on the BBC.

  • KieronPearce Kieron (@KieronPearce) reported

    @stephen_latham @itvfootball Itv4 HD on Virgin is only on highest TV tier only which we don't have. Freeview 26 is standard def itv4 which looks like **** on a 4k TV. (I think it's 576p resolution)

  • adthedoor Adam Hammond (@adthedoor) reported

    @BullAntics Nope. And reception is so poor here that we only get about 14 channels on Freeview.

  • Kevinbrown7979 Kevinbrown79 (@Kevinbrown7979) reported

    @HisenseGlobal I have just bought a Hisense smart tv. Was told by the shop it has freeview. However, it’s freeview plus which seems to mean I can only watch tv through the individual channel apps and not able to get a tv listings of all channels to scroll through. Can you help?

  • pop_hill Pop (@pop_hill) reported

    @BritBox_UK @ITVX This sounds like a repeat if the Ondigital saga, became ITVDigital closed down and became Freeview.

  • StevenEJohnso Steve J (@StevenEJohnso) reported

    @CallumBruceSNP At least they are not down to watching Freeview , that would be the end .

  • EssenceofCG C Thomas (@EssenceofCG) reported

    I don’t have Freeview at home and ITVX is not working on my laptop I’m gonna cry

  • TommyRethink Tommy Flanagan (@TommyRethink) reported

    We have an old DTT freeview box in our cord-never house that only makes special appearances every two years, when the old girl is dusted off for the World Cup and the Euros. Tells you all you need to know about reliability of live streaming services for footy. Anyone else?

  • thhamilton Tom Hamilton (@thhamilton) reported

    @GidonFreeman @MattRogerson The issue is the aerial (irrelevant for streamed programming) not the presence or absence of a freeview box.

  • illuminatus 🙄 (@illuminatus) reported

    @JaseHeeley It is at times like this that I am glad I only get the minimal Freeview service where I am.
