  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

    @mitchyj_ @sophielouisecc No it's not. It provides far more than ITV, for example. What funds the Freeview +transmission network (which many pensioners use to access TV). That's right, the BBC licence fee.

  • pjtobin00 Paddy (@pjtobin00) reported

    License fee also goes into the Freeview network, free children education. Wanting to get rid of it because it reports news, that some people don’t like, is tyrannical #GMB

  • Gus_preston Gus (@Gus_preston) reported

    @Michael37822549 @ChrisMousse3 @JuliaHB1 So you're happy paying a licence fee if it gets spent on other things than just the BBC? What about the support of the Freeview network that allows free-to-air TV to he broadcast. Or the broadband roll-out. Or SC4? That's not a BBC station.

  • MattSnarky Meh.. (@MattSnarky) reported

    @Scrumpydude1 @jamiebglover How do you think the broadcast network that Freeview runs on gets paid for? All those transmitters that still need to be operated and maintained?

  • theninetyninep1 theninetyninepercent (@theninetyninep1) reported

    @cononeilluk @luckyma_man .. many won't have + a subscription fee of min £7/ month. Oh + probably have to invest in smart TV or Freeview Play Box, oh + have to navigate through all those new menus. I wonder if Nadine will be providing a free helpline to help all those elderly ppl navigate the Technology

  • am_henderson Al Henderson (@am_henderson) reported

    @tafallen Don't they also maintain the freeview transmitter network?

  • kingswing72 Irrefutably Wright (@kingswing72) reported

    @SpergenFlergen @bbcpress BBC pays to maintain the Freeview network as part of the licence fee.

  • pjtobin00 Paddy (@pjtobin00) reported

    @AudsDisease @SkyNews What about Freeview channels? The license fee also goes to maintaining the Freeview network

  • pjtobin00 Paddy (@pjtobin00) reported

    @raphael91983947 @SkyNews One channel? How about the radio, Freeview network, online bbc content, etc

  • pwatson1974 Paul Watson (@pwatson1974) reported

    @Lifeson90 @greg_jenner So what’s the better alternative that keeps all the non-subscription friendly services like Freeview or the transmitter network?
