@a516digital Was wondering if it might be quietly forgotten. There are no plans to include BBC News though in theory it could probably be squeeze in as well. Must say though finding the Freeview HD signal far less reliable now than it used to be.

@FreeviewAdvice @ToshibaTEC_UK I don’t think it’s an issue with freeview play, the Toshiba tv I have seems to have deleted the app even though there’s a button on the remote specifically for it. I was hoping @ToshibaTEC_UK customer service was better than their tvs, guess not. Thanks for your reply though

@ImIncorrigible Not yet. Im preparing for at least a 2 week blackout of Radio when it happens. I'll check Nick Abbot's Fri/Sat podcast. Havent watched Freeview since 2015/Sky since 2017 so avoiding News wont be a problem. YT & the New US Drama's start end Sept 2022. I'll listen 2Old Nick A shows

@NateDawg27 @shedden Yep. A lot of older/isolated people will only have freeview/radio so putting it just on bbc news 24/world service for rolling reporting with any new news on standard news bulletin programmes would be better

@GregScottTV Uktv still broadcasting with a caption to turn over to bbc news earlier. Some Shopping channels down, Sky could have closed sky arts or pick on freeview with sky news in its place, They didn't, Showcase though are but it'd pay tv.

@TalkingPicsTV Great line-up… but I can’t get ‘Red Button’ on Freeview to work. Any idea why not? Your FAQs don’t help - I’ve retuned but there’s no Encore logo under the TPTV logo…

I've had Sky News on in the background today because my freeview seems to be broken. But I now really want the familiar voice of Huw Edwards. Don't think I am alone as iPlayer seems to have crashed too. #RIPQueenElizabeth

@dave_barton76 @ChildOfAlba @RussInCheshire A lot of people are in actual poverty and with very poor mental and/or physical health right now. Many of those people will be stuck with Freeview. I, for one, am genuinely worried about them right now. - Lorna
