    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

    @onlythejoiner Hi David, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please PM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • FastRSolutions FastR Solutions Ltd (@FastRSolutions) reported

    @4CAnalytics @The_Expert_Eye Oh yes remember that. We gave up on Lost when it went to Sky, as we only had Freeview back then & I heard the ending was poor. It had lost its way before then. I quite liked watching Manifest aside from her eyebrows, need to catch up on that, as it's now on Netflix
