@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.

@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.

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

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 !!!

who knew, that there is help available if mobile masts are interfering with your Freeview Signal!? Just had a great chat with the people from Restore TV. Filters are available free of charge to help with interference. @RestoreTVHelp @FreeviewTV @FreeviewAdvice

Absolutely stupid that Amazon has made watching Parcs and Recreation now almost unbearable to watch because even though you still have prime you still have to watch it through their Freeview service so there's no way to get rid of the ads...

@AboutEG Might be worth following @DowndetectorUK. You will get alerts for things you don't care about, but it was a great early warning for today's Twitter problems, and that recent Freeview outage - answers the "is it just me?" question.

@johubris @jarrod__baker Ok I feel like a bit of an idiot, but it transpires the Freeview app is actually working on our tv now. I thought it’d been canned but I seem to have live tv.

of all the streaming services I use (there are many as I don't have freeview, sky or virgin) @ITV is by far the worst... works as and when it wants, freezes, jumps, and won't let you pause/rw or fw... thank goodness I don't watch many of their shows...

@MacLiv Yeah I mainly just wanted Sky broadband but even that I’m going to cancel. Freeview channels are good aren’t they! As long as we get CBeebies then we’re happy xxxx

@angefitzpatrick @libmichelle I have lived IN Edinburgh for the past 12 years. Our last house is on the edge of the city but definitely in it. On rainy days Freeview only picked up 4 TV channels and when we moved out in 2019 there was still no cable so internet was glacially slow.
