  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

  • iainsykes2014 Iain Sykes (@iainsykes2014) reported from Blackburn, England

    @KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

  • garethrichmond5 Gareth Richmond (@garethrichmond5) reported from Bury, England

    If anyone needs a football fix Copenhagen are playing some other Danish club behind closed doors on Freeview 64...... is this what it’s come to😂

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • groovicat groovicat 💚 (@groovicat) reported from Adlington, England

    @Sillyshib Heartbeat, ssshhh, it's never been off. You can watch Heartbeat every day on freeview

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported

    @sianharries_ I don't know, Freeview's standard channels all look bloody awful compared to HD.

  • ropa69 Ropa69🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@ropa69) reported

    @bt_uk Dissapointed in your TV services . After being a Sky customer for years I thought I'd give BT a go . Can't even view BTSports in HD without paying extra and entertainment channels are mostly available on Freeview anyway.. Think I'll be returning to @SkyUK

  • Mac_WiFi Andrew McHale (@Mac_WiFi) reported

    @TheCMReed @Potato_Fi @TurtleBeach Nope, no change 😫 POV1 is “stuck” in freeview mode so I can’t do things like select the throttle in training mode. I’m guessing this isn’t an issue on yours then which gives me hope for a fix from TB

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @TPTVEncore @TalkingPicsTV Incredibly slow loading on a Panasonic Viera 49ES500. Even with the cache files preloaded. Also, no indication that the red button has been pressed to show the app is actually loading. All other Freeview+ services working fine.

  • Bickiebeej beej (@Bickiebeej) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV hi, We have a brand new TV, Internet and freeview but we get as far as pressing OK to watch something then a blank screen, with the red button service. Are we not doing something obvious maybe?

  • EMcG67 Eamonn McGuinness (@EMcG67) reported

    @Flintaxe @BBCiPlayer Hello again. I seem to have fixed this issue. I didn't have a TV aerial connected to the back of the TV itself (I use a BT box.) Once I connected to the back of the TV, iplayer worked as it operates via the Freeview Play platform. Hope this works for you.

  • LuckyTarget Lucky Target Comics - back issue webstore (@LuckyTarget) reported

    Watching live Freeview for the first time in years and it is hour after hour, dozens of channels full of utter crap. How do people still watch this? Streaming has spoiled me.

  • tanurai Tanya Fish (@tanurai) reported

    @em_cooper Read your book backlog instead. Pretend you're on holiday with a crap aerial and freeview, the only choices being Bargain Hunt or a repeat of A Home In The Sun.

  • CameronYardeJnr Cameron Yarde Jnr (@CameronYardeJnr) reported

    @TheSilverCloak @UKChristmasTV I'm not giving up my Sky. But Talking Pictures only has the catch up service on Freeview and I want to see it on proper TV. You can't cast from the app to the TV.
