  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • jonnyhern Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • spazhammer ⓦⒶⓃⓨⓔ the cotton headed ninnymuggins (@spazhammer) reported

    ... plus I get to watch the home highlights/finest TV available (plus some garbage/filler I still enjoy!) Instead of watching what's available on virgin/sky/Freeview, I get to choose whatever when I want. I don't get why others haven't. Other than technical skills/knowledge

  • ScotRamsay Scot Ramsay (@ScotRamsay) reported

    @lennylaw When you have 6 live TV channels available to all on Freeview, and you show the same thing on 5 channels, and close down the sixth, that's just bollocks.

  • LY33KH4 Lyeekha (@LY33KH4) reported

    my freeview doesnt have good enough signal strength for non-bbc channels aarrurghhghghbgh

  • thedeadpixel66 Thomas (@thedeadpixel66) reported

    @xxxavier_19 @dopexdiamondss @etherealdeen I never had cable or sky as a child so I always thought it came out in 2013 because that’s when I came out on Freeview

  • LiamJones396 Liam Jones (@LiamJones396) reported

    On my holiday freeview experience, watching Taskmaster. UK TV isn’t doomed, good ****

  • wirvine56 William Irvine (@wirvine56) reported

    @janicecelticsmp @micheloola 1 of the apps ive got, you can download freeview channels. the catch is you have to log/sign in, thats b/c bbc is included. you cannot get all these freeview channels only b/c of the bbc. you should have a option to delete the bbc from the list.

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @CardozoAth @SteelDalek1 But they have a 24 hour dedicated news channel broadcasting on Freeview. Freesat. Sky's platform and the internet so people could watch that. But to be sure you can't escape they close down their other TV networks or relay the same output across them all.

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

    @davidkeatsuk This of course was given as the reason for suspending the former BBC Red Button 301 service on Freeview during the Opening Ceremony of London 2012 - BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Three and BBC News all showing live or partial coverage.

  • xAbbierose Abbie Sims 👩🏼‍🦯 (@xAbbierose) reported

    Anyone else unable to get 4seven on freeview? Says service unavailable but is working on freesat 🤔

  • juneandnoz June Taylor (@juneandnoz) reported

    @scott_steve It is important. But if you don't want to watch it Freeview and Sky are doing other stuff. So change channels. Not a problem
