    @BBCWorld No wonder! Freeview is crap and we are sitting at home!

  • darrksquid Kate🇪🇺 (@darrksquid) reported from Bonnyrigg, Scotland

    Ok, Peanut Gallery, what is a decent news/current events show available on Freeview that I can watch for 15 minutes in the morning before work with my cereal? I can't do Piers Morgan, and BBC Breakfast IS pretty poor, I'll admit.

    @JayStringer Just check out Blaze tv on freeview, seems like mad alien shit is half their content.

    @gudger_adam Hi Adam, we're sorry you were having this audio issue while viewing #BigFatQuiz. Could you let us know if you were viewing online or live on your TV? If live, how do you receive your signal? (Sky/Virgin/Freeview etc.)

  • jjone125_j itma (@jjone125_j) reported

    @salbags60 Good idea, one of the extra BBC channels that are viewable on Freeview but then we have the problem of age related lessons

  • 1MarkAllison Mark Allison (@1MarkAllison) reported

    @mostlyceltic81 Why did you not buy one with Freeview built in then?? Seems like poor research before a major purchase to me.

  • rbjtas Richard Jones (@rbjtas) reported

    @RJW_AVFC1874 @staceyleaster When I got down to the Birchley Crossings MaccieDs the lad in front of me had shorts on too amazingly they make us hard in Blackheath! Enjoy the match mate if anyone is like me a poor accountant it's on Freeview 722 from @bbcwm

  • JessicaR0byn Jess Dinmore (@JessicaR0byn) reported

    @LGUK hi guys, my brand new tele is showing ‘No CI Module’ after tuning Freeview, was told to call but no answer. TV is LG UHD TV 50UN70 any help will be so appreciated!

  • NickHackett2 Nicholas (@NickHackett2) reported

    @salbags60 I'm sure there used to be channel like that called teachers tv but changed to together tv now and I've never watch together tv so can't tell you unfortunately. But it is on freeview

  • fmacskasy fmacskasy (@fmacskasy) reported

    While @radionz is on news & current affairs blackout during "summer break", there's Al Jazeera on Freeview. This is what a commercialised RNZ would look like. One word: irrelevant.

  • JasonPrickett Jason Prickett (@JasonPrickett) reported

    @LGUK @LGUKCare Just bought a brand new 2020 model smart TV. Outrageous that it doesn’t support Freeview play. Can’t get ITV player or All4. Thought that’d be standard. Knew I should have went for the Samsung. Looks like a trip back to the shop to return it #LG #Wasteofmoney

    @pinkygeorgina91 Damn!! Wish I had freeview!
