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.

@KazzyAnnie1 I got fed up with Virgin internet dropping several times a day and the frequent sales calls. I switched to BT, 6 months later I haven't had a single outage or annoying sales call. Speed about the same but it depends on your area. Going freeview too is where I saved money.

@Jan_208 It really does! I have no problem watching 405 line black and white especially with vintage content. The freeview box it is attached to seems to be stuck on @TalkingPicsTV !

@Mark_P0x0n @LucyMPowell But I might want to watch something on freeview that requires adverts & a properly costed budget to fund (not BBC) So why should I pay for the BBC when their model is at best a tax on live TV of any sort? This is where the BBC falls down in the modern era, it's simply outdated

Well, sadly an audit of my parents radiograms has proved fruitless... none of their units seem to support my favourite station. However, instead I managed to find them " that's 60s ", on their Freeview TV. It has thrown up some absolute gems, the three of us are singing away.

@Fudge_Barge @BBCNews It would damage the revenue streams of commercial channels. They don't want that. Your TV license also pays for the broadcasting infrastructure used by Freeview, broadband rollout and part funds S4C in Wales. It's not just the BBC that benefits.

@JVCSmartHome I have a LT-40CF890. TV is only operating via the apps and Wifi. Press any of the channel numbers and it comes up, but screen is blank and no sound. If I press Live TV button, it just shows Freeview and buffering. Tried unplugging TV but problem persists.
