  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @dannysavage @yorkshireladtv It's channels that are text services, teletext holidays is one, or use the Internet to show programmes that are not transmitted over the Freeview UHF network.

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    The 80m temporary mast at Bilsdale has blown down. So no @Freeview. We did tell them it gets windy up there.

  • DarrenClark1971 Darren Clark (@DarrenClark1971) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Can’t believe how truly terrible EETV is. Tuning freeview channels is atrocious. Currently get 43, no BBC, ITV or any basic ones using new aerial. If it does find them they just disappear. Bedroom TV gets all the freeview ones and that’s on an old aerial in the same spot. #EETV

  • Joe__Monty Joe (@Joe__Monty) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Looks like freeview is down across Teesside. No TV or radio signal..

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @scottygb Shouldn't be any shunt on Freeview either as 7 was never reallocated.

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @dannysavage Not everywhere. Parts of Ripon, Thirsk and Harrogate still have very little or no signal. Freeview and Arqiva are on the case. Temporary relay being planned in next 14 days.

  • Colin08302719 Colin (@Colin08302719) reported

    @BBCNews I don't know of its a technical problem but my favourite BBC News program on freeview on ch 101 during the local news seems to have gone? Just faint water 💧 and going. Where are the pictures? A lovely beach? A competition every day for the best?

  • ROfiron Anti-Growth Coalition (@ROfiron) reported

    @dave43law @thecoastguy Freeview Jesus being one of the worst

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @sgordon_the87 The first set top box we had was a generic DTT box, Freeview launched a few months later, Although the ntl Digital text service featuring subscription channel listings for ITV Digital remained for a good while after Freeview launched, with daily updates.

  • scrapchallenge1 Kirsty ♿️👩‍🦼 (@scrapchallenge1) reported

    @car_kuryakin @SkreeBat Nope we couldn’t. It SAID “full access” and never once mentioned limited access or not being able to see any more than freeview

  • stuarthoughton Stuart Houghton but he's actually a dracula (@stuarthoughton) reported

    Just seen Neil Oliver referred to as 'Freeview Jesus' and I may never recover

  • tommieharve t harvey (@tommieharve) reported

    @Elemjay1 Oh that's really fantastic - now I feel confident I can go into battle with my 'freeview jesus' sword in hand. He is so ridiculous, I sometimes really want to give him a bit of a hug. And then I think, **** it, let him burn in the toxins he spews, nothing to see here etc etc.

  • elaineliqo @elaineliqo (@elaineliqo) reported
