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.

@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.

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

@james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

@thenoikz @NadineDorries The problem is the services rhe provide that the disabled would have nothing without, the educational resources schools wouldn’t have, the fact that Freeview transmitters wouldn’t be maintained and the lack of Welsh/Gaelic language services. All “not your problem” though, eh?

@steventgray @GaryLineker The examples your using are poor…ITV and C4 are freeview channels and don’t cost you a penny to watch so in what way do you have to pay for that?

@ledredman @jeremybear123 @JolyonMaugham There is a false narrative that Freeview can be phased out. Anyone who has watched anything live on Amazon or ITV Hub can tell you internet broadcasting is not up to scratch. Selling spectrum so people can watch shows on phones at expense of watching in HD on TV is just stupid.

@CaptainThunk @DefundBBC They could encrypt the signal and make it subscription-based, since every Freeview TV has a card slot (CAM) on the rear for that very purpose. BT Sport used it for a while - no issues. But the BBC always lies and says it isn't possible, and everyone just takes them at their word.

@RedemptionBroon @KrisGriffiths @JuliaHB1 It's currently 43p a day, which includes the cost of maintaining the Freeview transmission network, BBC TV, radio, iPlayer, etc. I have no interest in paying for Sky or similar. If that was £2 a day, it would still be a bargain. About the same as a high of street coffee.

Nice to be on 5 Live with @Mobeen_Azhar to talk about the BBC licence fee. The BBC’s critics argue for a subscription model, but I still haven’t heard a convincing argument about how that would work for network and local radio - or on Freeview television.

"Making the BBC a paid-for subscription service similar to Netflix is difficult due to the widespread popularity of broadcast radio and Freeview television services, which cannot be put behind a paywall." Er, they absolutely can and I hope they are!

@Garnhiem_ @talkRADIO The issue that most people have is with the news programmes. There are no subscription only news TV stations in the Uk. Even sky news is free on freeview. It is also not an option for radio stations.

@JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Explain how subscription service will work with Freeview.

@ShineyFx If you even use Freeview ever. You also use it. You do use something it pays for Now that doesn’t equate to you should pay for it. Ofc not, choice is choice But like you do and it will be the case for streaming service eventually
