  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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.

    Wee #Sushi 🍣 is listening intently @simonmayo ! Struggling to get @greatesthitsuk here in Glasgow, other than on app. 2 TV's, both with Freeview, 1 has major sound issues trying to play it.

  • PrakzStar Prakz (@PrakzStar) reported

    I’m actually so happy that cricket is back on @SkyCricket rather than C4!! The initial excitement of test cricket being back on freeview for the country to see went away very quickly with poor punditry in the studio!!

  • pompeydom Dominique Reynolds (@pompeydom) reported

    Well that's crap, looking forward to @englandcricket on @Channel4 today. Only to bloody look and see it's on @SkyCricket. Just had to text mum & say she can't watch it or listen to it as #talksport2 isn't on freeview! #englandcricket #T20Cricket

  • angelauk1900 Angela🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 (@angelauk1900) reported

    @JanetMcwee I haven't had a TV aerial for about 20 years. No longer have a Sky box so I watch Freesat via TV ( similar to Freeview) and stream everything else, catchup, iplayers, netflix etc via internet although I do subscribe to NOW TV which is a Sky streaming service.

  • martincasson Martin Casson (@martincasson) reported

    @OldRoberts953 We very rarely watch BBC programmes- not much to interest us. It’s normally other freeview channels or at a stretch a subscription service.

  • ronniet240 Ronnie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 should🚶🏻‍♂️🚶🏻‍♂️🇬🇧 (@ronniet240) reported

    I’m looking to see what original programs are on TV as it’s Saturday and what do we have on all these FreeView channels well let’s just forget BBC as it’s same-old-same-old. BBC2 1980 T/Pops? Any & Dec same old format you can bet on it! Then The New Voice old format..Crap!!

  • AndrewJFrizzell Andy Frizzell (@AndrewJFrizzell) reported

    The EPG for @FreeviewTV Play on my TV is excruciatingly slow. Is this a @PanasonicUK thing or are all TV’s slow at scrolling through the channels in Freeview play?

  • Scot_Infidel DonaldM1951 (@Scot_Infidel) reported

    @JanetMcwee We have cable, But also freeview aerial in case cable goes down.

  • jwoolala mimi ♡’s eve & bea {online} (@jwoolala) reported

    @xhi2001 that and kikis delivery service were the first 2 i watched cause it was on one of the free movie channels u get with freeview and i sat and watched them and then watched them again after that

  • IsobelMKeane Isobel Ní Chatháin 🇮🇪 (@IsobelMKeane) reported

    @utdfox We didn't have Sky and it was never shown on the Freeview channels. I did watch the Pokemon DPPT animes, Bakugan, Beyblade, Tokyo Mew Mew and Digimon Data Squad though.
