  • ccdavos David (@ccdavos) reported from Overcombe, England

    @bobbert_ Full Sky Q except Sports & Kids, Netflix, Prime and Disney+! I initially got Sky as the Freeview signal was ****, but since then a masthead amp has been installed on the communal aerial so all good now. Think I prefer your idea of £11.99 a month, as I hardly watch any of it!

  • JamesHailey1 Jimmy Tweets (@JamesHailey1) reported from Weymouth, England

    Apparently the guy with the goatie in Eastenders isn't Beppie....Is Wicksey still in it ? Not watched this trash in 20 years but Mrs H has put it on because we are down to Freeview...I want to slash my wrists 10 minutes in....How do you watch this garbage @Shana_Banana_44 ?!

    @101Maurice We get EE 4G but it's pretty patchy I live in a suburban area a couple of miles from Poole in Dorset and can't get a freeView signal so have to use Freesat....

    Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

    ⏰ #COP26 is now only days away. But what should world leaders be focusing on? Present problems or future challenges? We'll be discussing this on the #DailyClimateShow with @Dr_Gilbz and @StanleyPJohnson. 🕡6:30pm 📺Sky 501/Freeview 233

    Hopefully it will regain Signal soon... Al Jazeera News is on the Freeview Channel list too on that TV but not BBC News...?! Ironic I guess...

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi Freeview we have an apartment block in Malton, North Yorkshire. All the TVs have been retuned but the signal is weak and on most of the TVs the picture or the sound is distorted. How can we resolve this problem as it is affecting our business... thanks
