@Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

@FreeviewAdvice Can you help me please. I am now relying on Freeview. My tv has HD but Freeview isn’t. How do I get my Freeview into HD. It’s not a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

@JakTrident @cavaliers_rock @bbcdoctorwho to fully understand the Dr Who sound issues it would be useful to discover who was watching on what platform. E.g. iplayer, Freeview, iplayer HD, BBC though SKy etc - Can I ask what broadcast system were you listening to?

@finchoid Joking aside, two of my mates are functioning ****** addicts. After beers once I chased the dragon with them. You know where you inhale the fumes? It was ****! They were out of it, I was looking for something to watch on Freeview. I was actually quite disappointed.

@jwripple Ah, Ok: that sounds "better" John but maybe that's a relative term if the connection has come adrift! I hope you can get it fixed without too much of a problem. At least Sky Arts is free to view: one can access it via FreeView or FreeSat if you aren't already a subscriber.

Watching “Super Cyclone” (2012) on Great Movies Action (Freeview 41). Ridiculously cheap budget, low quality CGI special effects, amateur actors reciting scripted lines, narrow angle close-up shots (to disguise cheap small sets), corny dialogue. It’s so bad that it’s almost funny
