  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    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.

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    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.

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @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.

  • joti261 joti261 (@joti261) reported

    @IndyVoices @tompeck I can't actually get it on Freeview, signal too weak in the middle of Northants! So only seen snippets but pretty much what I expected. From comments I have seen from the 'can't wait' to see it brigade the infighting and dissatisfaction is well under way, also just as expected!

  • allybalder alan watson (@allybalder) reported

    @mgtruth Had Sky Q for yonks - never a prob - except when weather bad to the south east - switch to freeview

  • YoungOneUK AndyYoung (@YoungOneUK) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @Jamesmack007 @GBNEWS Speaking with people across my Town and troubleshooting with others across the internet. GBNews on Freeview is slightly blurry and fuzzy. This would suggest it is a Freeview transmission issue not a receiver issue as others are having the exact same problem.

  • BORSON_ 🅱️orson 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@BORSON_) reported

    @ElRaynerista There is a saying "there is no such thing as bad publicity" Many, will have never heard of GB news (Sky 115, Freeview 236), before the negative publicity but I guarantee a high amount who didn't know may have looked for it, which is great news for a fledgling channel.

  • man_dobro DobroMan (@man_dobro) reported

    @CaptainKramer @SkyHelpTeam @GBNEWS Freeview 236? Crap picture quality but still eminently better than the other news outlets.

  • DJMidarezaki DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇭🇰➡️ #LivesMatter (@DJMidarezaki) reported

    @Gbeebies If you're watching on Freeview the picture quality is likely down to most streams on the commercial multiplexes being transmitted at 544x576 then stretched to 16x9 to keep bandwidth down (thus sell more channel slots). This is down to the multiplex operator, not the channels.

  • Imron215 Imron2 (@Imron215) reported

    Is anyone having trouble getting GB News? I understand it's on Freeview Channel 236 but it doesn't come up. Have I got a woke TV set or am I just being a bit dim?🤔

  • java2107 @java2107 (@java2107) reported

    @jubbsxx where are you watching it? i haven't experienced much of this apart from the sound and lighting issues, but i have also been watching it on my phone. i have heard reports of most issues originating from freeview, which has bandwidth issues or something. criticism is good though!
