    @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

  • 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 😂

    @FreeviewAdvice Who the hell came up with this bxxxdy Freeview signal idea. Whoever wants his/her IQ tested. I am watching a program on 5USA and then nothing. They must have taken all of a week to test it. BBC1-100%, 5USA-0%. Do I have to pray for rain? (Low pressure system).

    @freeview no signal Sutton Coldfield transmitter

    @FreeviewTV @JimIrvineUK Following is email to sky news:Like hundreds in Swindon and others in UK at 2130 we lost freeview signal  we just are left with screen saying no signal there is no news or update with freeview  I attempted to retune and programs break up till you get no signal messege.

  • PeterN266 Peter_N (@PeterN266) reported

    @5USATV Hello. Any issues with signal strength? Can’t watch a thing on freeview as signal weak and not constant. Peter

  • Kennyg7862 Kenneth Gollop (@Kennyg7862) reported

    Can anyone help I have a Sony DVD Freeview receiver model number RDR-HXD890 and it has decided it doesn't want to switch off help would be appreciated.

  • ian0nai Ian McClure (@ian0nai) reported from Ayrshire, Scotland

    @DarcyLloydJoyce @guardiannews Was the best, they've been running it down, watch Sky Arts disappear from Freeview once BBC4 is out the way.

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @BbcBring @russty_russ @journeymaxx You're welcome. The signal is quite random here on the Wirral. Some days S4C will come through very well on Freeview, other days not at all! After the initial switchover viewers across the North West were getting signals from Wales but not the North West!

  • Al_Hine Al Hine (@Al_Hine) reported

    @rewind_ttvr Funny how the Beeb use the time difference between digital platforms excuse to not have an onscreen clock, yet @BBCRadio4 broadcast's the Greenwich Time Signal. Radio 4 is on multiple outlets - all a couple of seconds behind LW / FM / DAB / Freeview / D-Sat etc.

  • Marcooni Marcooni (@Marcooni) reported

    Never get bored of watching 'Foul Play' with Goldie Hawn, Chevy Chase, Dudley Moore and Billy Barty. Just started on Talking Pictures TV, Freeview ch 81

  • Kewjonrichard wife seeker (@Kewjonrichard) reported

    @ITSBIGTONE @FreeviewTV On other social media freeview is now being called crap tv. I'd have to say the service is disgusting and a note to advertiser using freeview platform. Waste of cash thousands are being denied a signal
