    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    "BBC Four HD will return soon" is not a glowing example of brilliant customer information, Freeview. 99.9% of us are not TV experts and would quite like at least some hint as to what "soon" might mean. For this channel, even I notice the difference between HD and SD.

    @glasound I have SKY broadband, no problems, don't have SKY TV just Freeview on a Smart TV

  • scott_gamer Scott M (@scott_gamer) reported

    @Page_888 @russty_russ Interesting. For the period of time between the collapse of ITV Digital and the launch of Freeview, I suppose it made sense for there to be DTT boxes manufactured. I didn't realise that Top-Up TV had anything to do with Freeview, as I thought it was a separate platform/service.

    why when li goes on longer does it never show on tv like i have to go to my silly little freeview app to check

  • oliver_shergold Acid 🇺🇦 Mouse (@oliver_shergold) reported

    @lungz77_ @foxylocksy1 I have got Sky with basic Netflix coming Friday, maybe I will be able to see it. I had to do something to escape Freeview. It's that bad tonight I've got Heartbeat on. 😐

  • MagicSky_UK Nick Francis (@MagicSky_UK) reported

    @BBCNews wonderful new Webb telescope images, yet we now have to watch on Freeview in standard definition as no HD signal 🤷.

  • HolylandCulchie Holylands Culchie (@HolylandCulchie) reported

    @EamonHegarty I literally watched the match on Freeview via NI and check on my phone too. I was able to stream it via both the RTÉ player app and website. We have Virgin media and a ****** indoor aerial and even it picks up RTÉ Freeview signal.

  • EmmaLovelace Emma Lovelace (@EmmaLovelace) reported

    Now getting 71 Freeview channels today, down from 96 yesterday. Well down from a 147 in the colder times.

    Horror channel no longer on Freeview and replaced by Legend channel.. I knew this was going to happen after RT News got the boot. I just can imagine the christofascists taking over the media saying it was demonic and **** … reality has become the horror channel

  • TizerBawz TB (@TizerBawz) reported

    Help. Can a sky satellite dish be used as an aerial for a freeview box?
