    @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.

    @PBSAmerica just watching @DrJaninaRamirez on the Freeview play catch up service. I have noticed however, that the commercials are all in the wrong places, halfway through a sentence and on a couple of occasions halfway through a word. Any chance of looking at this? Thanks.

    @Gaz_THFC @rnossej If you are in a contract say you want to cancel they will say you will have to pay an exit fee. Say you want to switch to freeview service (£15 a month ) and say you can’t afford to pay for it they should give a £10 discount for £5. Cheaper than the exit fee - that’s what I did

    Ah, good old Freeview. I'm only just back from my elderly mother's and she rings me to say she can't watch TV because it says that the channels have to be retuned. She can't do it herself so I'll have to go back and do it. It's a stupid system isn't it?

    @micronautsFan @NoContextBrits To be fair up until about 20 years ago (roughly) we had 5 whole channels haha. When satellite TV came in then Freeview as I am sure you know, it all changed but we never had the US style 200+ cable channels until quite late on.

    @AlanJohnson1959 @LeeHurstComic Its awful. I only watch the food network on freeview, other than i only use prime for shows/movies as living in a rural place it saves me a fortune on fuel for deliveries

    @BrokenTV @UKPRES1 @TalkingPicsTV Haha, funny you should say that, I'm unfortunate enough to have terrible Freeview reception and Sky Glass, neither of which will get me Talking Pictures, sadly.
