  • GerryCarpenter3 Gerry Carpenter (@GerryCarpenter3) reported from Sunderland, England

    @Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

    Freeview is having regular issues with interference on BBC channels where the picture breaks up, meaning the TV needs regular retuning. Why is there this issue? @FreeviewAdvice @bbcpress @Ofcom

    @HLTCO When I was at uni, I had a freeview box or something and it had Sky Sports News. **** it was repetitive, but it was on all day in my room.

    @Faka_of_west219 Life was better when it was just on sky sports and social media. It was so fun mate. You got home or wake up and stick on sky sports news as it was free on the freeview box. It was great time. Now it’s ****
