@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.

@GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

@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.

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

@channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

@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.

@Bob_Fischer Ah, is this why I've seen a few NE chums complaining of Freeview not working today? We nearly had a similar thing in 2018 when all of West Yorkshire and the countryside around Manchester was on fire, including Winter Hill, the main NW transmitter. During the World Cup too!

It may take years, but the truth will be known
(@A16Version) reported
@melissaztweets @ITV @AEW I actually understand why it was on ITV4 - in the age of freeview (I can remember TNA beating WWE in the UK as TNA was on Challenge) - but yeah, the inconsistency about the ITV4 airing, and the lie about ITV Hub being a Thursday thing has screwed AEW bad

(@bradley_steve) reported
@WilliamAllen29 @Garbhan_D I presume they're only blocked where they can be blocked i.e. via Sky, where location of the viewer is known. It wouldn't be feasible to block thru Freeview, as that just works off of transmitters. Most countries have land borders, so signal leakage presumably tolerated re rights

@JAMortram I saw the directors cut at the cinema first - so have never been subjected to it, but heard pretty terrible all round. On the Waterfront just about to start on freeview so have had to turn off TV otherwise that’s the evening gone!!!

Due to a fire at the Bilsdale transmitter, our local North Yorkshire DAB multiplex will have reduced coverage. The incident has affected all services from the transmitter including Freeview, local FM and national/local DAB.

(@AllanLear6) reported
@Dean0076103703 @GaryLineker No, sorry, you're lying. The BBC funds two of the six multiplexes that deliver Freeview and Freesat content nationally. If you scrapped the licence fee, you'd have to fund that from somewhere else. If you don't understand the issue, it's best to reserve judgement.

(@Alan1_iow) reported
@itvcalendar @ITV Wow! TV transmitters don't usually catch fire. The structure is metal, so it will be the equipment at the foot of the mast that's will be the problem. It will mean no Freeview for the area it serves.
