    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • Beige29 Dark_Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • essexloko74 Gunner74 (@essexloko74) reported

    @KayBurley @OliverDowden Don’t know about cancelling Christmas but certainly be cancelling sky. only problem is sky News is on Freeview can’t get away from this ****. #switchoffskynews

  • AlexHTheMAX Alex Horsburgh (@AlexHTheMAX) reported

    @Scotsterahoy @STVNews Stv don't have the money to cover Annan v Kelty never mind 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 games. That is the bottom line. Scotland games on terrestrial tv outside a major game in the later stages of a tournament are over. Not a cheerleader for Sky but they did put the vital Serbia Euro tie on freeview.

  • notabotnumber Jon (@notabotnumber) reported

    @TheDoctor2058 Not really, got the 5 main channels and a couple more on Freeview, says a bad signal.

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    @MMendoza2021 @Freeview @TheNorthernEcho Poor or non?

  • shorthandwitch Gill Wray (@shorthandwitch) reported

    @LLLioness1973 Freeview has been awful for quite a few weeks now. I never know if I'm going to be able to watch my favourite programmes or whether they'll be too pixilated

  • neilmclaughlin2 neil mclaughlin (@neilmclaughlin2) reported

    @LiamODellUK Well over half of freeview channels never use subtitles, time all channels are required to use them as part of licence

  • AvifaunaLux2 Avi Lux 2 🌸 (@AvifaunaLux2) reported

    @louisebentley10 I've never seen and I missed it if it came up on Freeview. It never seems to air on Freeview now. I don't subscribe to paid services/streaming. I wish whatever channel aired it would show it again.

  • MUFC_Larn Lana (@MUFC_Larn) reported

    @Natzz6487 @MissNicoleDeans I wouldn’t worry too much. You’ll still see the original on prime time tv at Christmas while this awful looking remake will get a slot on the Christmas channel on freeview at 7am in the morning on the 8th of December. Don’t fret

  • KeyworkerMan Yorkshire-man (@KeyworkerMan) reported

    @TheNorthernEcho Almost full service restored! 122 Freeview channels stored after retuning my TV! In my car however, the TFM signal is still too weak to use! So its the end of listening to TFM radio in Harrogate!

  • alb7892 adam (@alb7892) reported
