    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @westywaldo @btsport That's kinda my point then, everything is better when it's free lol, if not freeview though then i'm glad it's not sky, Sky lock you in, it's extremely expensive and their flexibility with their apps for watching other than on TV are crap, same as their multi room.

  • embecmom2 John (@embecmom2) reported

    @LeoLem54321 @SkyNews You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live TV on any channel or TV service - such as ITV Hub, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview, Amazon Prime Video, Now TV - on any device.

  • bradtrc brad (@bradtrc) reported

    @markfrommellor @BBCOne Let’s not forget - the viewing figures for Wimbledon - is that just figures for viewing from platforms like Freeview/Sky? If so, how many more watched on iPlayer and services like Red Button? We’ll never know though…

  • steve_hmld steve_hmld (@steve_hmld) reported

    @TogetherukTV And I've tried using other data service based freeview channels eg Yass

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

But thats tv have put futher details up on a black slate confirming the hours. Lots of issues between nieghbours tonight, especially where i live as freeview very poor.

    @anee1a Probably 50% of the foreign films I've seen I saw for the first time on Film4, a Freeview channel lol As long as you're able to read subtitles easily, it shouldn't be a problem.

  • GC_Wood Gary C Wood (@GC_Wood) reported

    First the removal of BBC Radio access via voice control on Sonos speakers; now the removal of @BBCNews HD from Freeview. @BBC not doing much to help its cause with the licence fee debate.

  • Agile_Sean Seán Massey (@Agile_Sean) reported

    How can @BBCNews HD be taken off of Freeview? What a terrible retrograde step

  • steve_hmld steve_hmld (@steve_hmld) reported

    @TogetherukTV when I retuned freeview I get data service message when I click on Channel 83

    @anee1a Probably 50% of the foreign films I've seen I saw for the first time on Film4, a Freeview channel lol As long as you're able to read subtitles easily, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm certainly not "cultured", I've just never been put off by subtitles.
