    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.

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

    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.

    @Richard92654559 Hi Richard, I am sorry to hear that you have been having issues with your Freeview channels. So we can look into this further can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • GalanthusA Angel (@GalanthusA) reported

    @GBNEWS Are you broadcasting at a reduced signal strength? For around a week I have been getting glitches affecting sound and picture and its so bad today its even affecting a set with a booster on it. All other channels are fine and I have tried re-tuning. I watch on Freeview

  • Raxor1Robin Robin Taylor (At home 🏡) (@Raxor1Robin) reported

    My #freeview is not working right the NW Granada transmission tower 🗼 seems to be kaput on a lot of the channels, #ohdear

  • rozlaws Roz Laws (@rozlaws) reported

    Does anyone I know on Twitter know about the tech of TV sets? I mainly watch it through my Sky box, but I can also get Freeview on terrestrial. That seemed to be hooked up via my VCR - yes, I still have one! Haven’t used it for years and now it seems to have broken, and… 1/2

  • ThaisSher Thais Sher (@ThaisSher) reported

    Hopefully it will regain Signal soon... Al Jazeera News is on the Freeview Channel list too on that TV but not BBC News...?! Ironic I guess...

  • evan_makeba Evan Makeba (@evan_makeba) reported

    That might be one of the first freeview football games and it was so bad I still want my money back.

  • rozlaws Roz Laws (@rozlaws) reported

    @jonnylaws1 No. Socket in wall connected to dish/aerial, which is connected to my box and is allowing me to watch tv that way. But I liked the option to also watch Freeview, handy if lots of progs on at same time. The ‘source’ on tv screen now says there’s no tv signal that way, not sure why

  • ChrissiBranson1 Chrissi Branson (@ChrissiBranson1) reported

    @AndyWilsonFS @MoneySavingExp Not all of them are essentials and what the OP might pay out for the flat. TV package is not essential that is what freeview is for. Service charges are not always paid for on flats as that normally covers areas of shared ownership eg hallways grass etc.

  • DougGore Douglas Gore (@DougGore) reported

    It's 2021 and there is still no sane way to have a streaming equivalent of Freeview or Freesat that can be accessed from a single UI. This is why public service broadcasting is dying.
