    @fliceverett My first TV was a cast off of my Grandma which was B&W and for many years had a dodgy tube so that peoples feet appeared above their heads. I bought my second TV ( colour) from Boots in 1984 and only bought my current one because I was having problems with the Freeview box !

  • ahappystitcher Sally-Jane 💙💛🌻 (@ahappystitcher) reported

    @aj2squared @MattCainWriter We're fully Firesticked. Our lounge tv no longer has a working Internal freeview box inside it, so that's solely Firesticked but I do miss the tv guide. The others are both freeview/Firestick or would be if the signal is there. I think the roof aerial/connections must be faulty.

  • daryl_millar Daryl Millar (@daryl_millar) reported

    Of course my Freeview signal breaks up now.

    @danmooreradio @a516digital On Freeview bandwidth is an issue. But also still a fair number of SD only boxes out there.

  • PigottColin Coliwolli (@PigottColin) reported

    Yep, usual pain in the arse as soon as the weather changes! Can’t watch anything in our area! About time you lot fessed up and admitted your incapable of sending a Freeview signal to all areas?

  • PBfromDevon Paul Bennett (@PBfromDevon) reported

    @BBCNews Oh poor thing diddums! When I was 20 you didn't have "Freeview" or a single channel to watch for nothing. And you went out when you could afford it. That encouraged you to work to better yourself. Zero sympathy.

    Tit, ***** b*llocks and bum gums! Was getting ready to watch QI XL and the bloody TV went poof! Damn you #Freeview. Have they not found a way yet to cope with fog and high pressure! Humph! Internet it is then!

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    Yet again poor (well no) freeview signal. Seems that yet again much of the south east is suffering from blackouts this evening. OH's annoyed because he's missing the SAS BBC show, although I did point out he could go onto BBC iplayer which should work.
