@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.

One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

@Nigel_Farage @reformparty_uk BBC should be subscription, but if it must be also available non-subscription so that old and/or poor can view live national occasions, Parliamentary debates, addresses to nation, etc, then let that be on Freeview with low-resolution VHS-level picture quality and mono sound.

@RupertLowe10 Make it a hybrid. Skeleton service on Freeview funded by adverts, with the option of a subscription for online ad-free and premium content. Basically the way ITV does it.

@KiszelyPhilip BBC radio superb, money from the licence fee also helps maintain the freeview service. Still regularly watch programmes on it more than any other channel. It still has the biggest audience share of any U.K. tv broadcaster. So this narrative no one watches it, is a lie.

@by_niels21222 @RupertLowe10 Have advertising. We should also consider what the licence fee funds. DAB, & Freeview rely in licence fee funding to operate. The World Service & BBC online are vital to many expats who'd risk losing their connection with the UK if they weren't there. There'd be no
