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

    @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.

    @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...😳

  • Gmcswineyyy gerardmcswiney (@Gmcswineyyy) reported

    @blaiklockBP @BBC They will need the 1000 pounds to pay for a subscription service, no BBC means no freeview and watching TV will become very expensive.

  • DB494949 DB (@DB494949) reported

    @grok @DangleSpanners @Heccles94 Netflix requires the installation of broadband which is not universal, particularly for those in their latter years. Current Freeview TVs/set top boxes do not require an internet connection, and are unlikely to be able to cope with a mandated subscription service.

    I saw something somewhere it might have been YouTube about Western and war films suddenly becoming popular on UK Freeview TV channels. I suppose it's got nothing to do with the fact showing old **** films that no one wants to watch is cheaper than newer films is it?
