  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?

  @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.

  @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

  @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

  @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.

  Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported 55 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported 56 minutes ago from Poplar, England

  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?

• 
  Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported 56 minutes ago 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

  @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.

  With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  Stephanie Howard (@Stephowd) reported 1 minute ago

  @LordFrodsham @HackedOffHugh A surprising number of people in this discussion don’t seen to be aware that the license fee doesn’t just cover the BBC but 70 Freeview channels & all radio. Anyone who doesn’t want to pay the fee can disconnect their TV, watch Sky Sport down the pub and Netflix on their computer

• 
  Em to the Ay to the Eff to the Tee (@MaFt) reported 2 minutes ago

  I have solved the BBC licensing "issue". Freeview and radio stays "free" and make any digital stuff (websites, iPlayer/catch-up etc) a subscription. I suspect there'll be enough people that rely on catch-up and iPlayer who would then subscribe / pay license.

• 
  Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported 2 minutes ago

  @PeteSmi15995270 @NorfolkGood1 @DefundBBC But the BBC isn't. And, if the BBC is removed from Freeview, then the platform will die. So unless you make people buy/subscribe to a set-top box like Sky/Virgin (at >£20 per month) they won't have access to any of these channels. Yep, that would go down well.

  🌻 David 🌻 (@lofty2401) reported 3 minutes ago

  @DuncanLindsay @MrDavidEBrown @MetroUK An hours news??? Not necessary bearing in mind the BBC news is 24 hours as is Sky news, both on Freeview. I’m sorry but this is bad scheduling.

• 
  Neil Bowers (@NeilRBowers) reported 4 minutes ago

  @skytv Hi, Sky Arts is available on FreeView but I get very poor TV reception. How can I watch it online? I have a TV Licence.

• 
  Gary Scott (@garyscott8383) reported 6 minutes ago

  @Lakeuk @timfarron The company dvtv that administrates the UK Freeview network is owned by the BBC.... They choose not to give us the full offering ( that we pay for all the same) so we pay for less service (Tim knows this it was his own campaign when Freeview first came out) we also can't get dab

  Graham Taylor (@doctorgreyboots) reported 8 minutes ago

  @FreeviewAdvice Hi we have had no freeview signal at all for about a week now. YO31 area of York, served by Bilsdale. Freeview status page for my postcode says there are outages in my area but I can't find any more information. Help!

• 
  Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported 12 minutes ago

  @d0hertyry4n @TomRafferty4 No, you’re not debating it. You said very clearly that only the elderly and the poor who watch via Freeview should pay. Of course as that’s 16% of the population they would get a hell of a lot less than they do. “Get less if you’re old or poor”. An interesting hill to die on.

  MadMitch (@MadMitch1929) reported 15 minutes ago

  @YesterdayTweets Who cares. Freeview is just a joke now. Having to retune every other month is causing great problems for the elderly.

  @_mels13 my parents are having the same problem with RTE 1 on Freeview
