    @dancludlow Never thought of it even. Not that worried, there'll be a solution. It supposedly has Freesat & Freeview on it. Will have to try to get D's son out here, if he ever stays still, he'll know! TV is 2020 model, hardly top of the range but good enough for me.

    @LightsOutF1Blog @SkySportsF1 @SkyHelpTeam Would also be interested to se if you can get it for £10 through a different service eg virgin/freeview

    There's an important point to be made about internet freedom and search algorithms but I can't be bothered all that so... The internet is like Freeview now. "Do you want this crap thing you didn't ask for on CNN 1, CNN 2, or CNN extra?" 😾

  • triplemeister Jay Hill (@triplemeister) reported from Downham Market, England

    @R59V8 I don't know what we pay, so I don't know how good a deal we get. But at least with Freeview you are close enough to the big mast to get no issues. Up here it is terrible - The slightest tropo and it's unwatchable

    @WeAreSTV Can someone advise me how I can create a STV freeview account. The website only seems to allow account holders to login but not register.

    @AskOneHousing @OneHousing @OHGResidents I’m now sick of your contractors accidentally cutting off our Sky and Freeview signal when they’re using the communal cupboards as a dumping ground. This is the umpteenth time since Christmas this has happened! 🤬
