    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • ioloj Iolo Jones (@ioloj) reported

    @gaeilge2036 @carolecadwalla @BBC The EU closed down the EU controlled sat feed, so Sky, Virgin, Freeview et al can’t provide a service. If it was down to Boris & Dorries no doubt it would still be live, as it is over the internet. Also, I think that most Tories would argue that the BBC isn’t state controlled.

  • autisticlyaar Aar Jae Wills They/Them 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦💛 (@autisticlyaar) reported

    @max_stenner I like streaming but I find its so so messy right now as its moving from public service broadcasting and isnt replicating well of what universially accessible Freesat and Freeview offerings offer. It’s more competitive but if you only one service in the UK cant compete with

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @cooraysmith Read a lot of people having the same issue. The Freeview website said we've recently had engineering works in the area, the signals were pretty solid before that.

  • ShaneRosser20 Shane Rosser (@ShaneRosser20) reported

    I never watch the mainstream media news channels on virgin media or Freeview TV besides there are other channels that people can watch and I'm watching now 90s music channel on virgin media TV right now.

  • TBeaterson Thom Beaterson (@TBeaterson) reported

    @John_BHarvey Spender never seems to get the same repeat treatment that some other shows from that era get on freeview (or does it?) A shame - I imagine it still stands up.

  • Loundshay Jane Tatam (@Loundshay) reported

    @Andy_hhh @Serendipity_03_ @VNotmeat Actually RT was not shut down by the UK. It has been affected by a ban imposed by the European Union. Although the UK is no longer in the EU, the bloc applied sanctions to satellite companies in Luxembourg and France, which provided the RT feed to Sky, Freesat and Freeview.

  • MarvelBeasty Marvelbeast (@MarvelBeasty) reported

    @Richard66629722 @florencerounda2 You can cancel the sky TV service if you want and it becomes a Freeview TV. Or you could plug in another cable service if you want. Just won’t have the same voice controls. But the voice control annoys me anyway as it is so buggy.

  • LoveLovePeaceP1 Love_Love_Peace_Peace_Blog (@LoveLovePeaceP1) reported

    @soundofbeauty22 Semis are only shown on Freeview channels in the UK and barely promoted, so only really watched by the fandom. We've never liked that up to now but I'm glad of it this time.
