    @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.

    @JamesTurner37 OK, having done this myself: yes you can access e g., BBC via a Firestick OR you can buy a smart TV that already has the terrestrial channels and Anazon etc installed. You may require an aerial for Freeview depending on the local signal. 1/

  • Bridgeanne Anne Booth 💙 (@Bridgeanne) reported

    @HeatherDarwent That's lovely. I have caught that on Sky Freeview - I never know when it is on though - I must do some research.

  • Starrygem4 DianeB ♀️ (@Starrygem4) reported

    @nerans1 @virginmedia Same here. I can get the channels I watch on freeview anyway. Having the option to record is the only reason I was hanging on but my tivo box is crap and keeps failing and I can get everything on the smart TV apps anyway. @virginmedia taking the p#$$

  • AndyWoodturner Andy Coates (@AndyWoodturner) reported

    OK...so the coaxial jumped from the Freeview box into the blueray box in it's own? "I never touched it." "I never touched it either." Fine. Then you have a sentient coaxial cable with a mischievous personality. "A what?" Nothing. It's fixed. "Oh, good. Can you look at the laptop”

  • SmilerTheSparky Pete (@SmilerTheSparky) reported

    What free/paid TV service do you have? We have Freesat ( because our Freeview signal is shite ), Amazon Prime & Netflix, although I'm considering binning the latter.

  • SimonOffTheCuff Simon Parritt 🔶 (@SimonOffTheCuff) reported

    @JamesTurner37 @GladiatrixRedux Freeview channels apart from a few are only accessible via an aerial and signal strength not enough for indoor versions - unless someone know more - I have up trying

  • chester_craft Chester Minecraft (@chester_craft) reported

    Technology has been doing it's best to send me insane this weekend. Drop outs, disconnections, set up issues, now the right channel on Freeview stopped working for zero reason. All fixed, but unnecessarily annoying.

  • SancastleAir SanCastle Air (@SancastleAir) reported

    @magicfurryidiot @heyjenbartel The only Netflix show I've grabbed is The Crown & that's not for me anyway. Nothing else interests me at all. I get plenty of good TV shows cross channel with my Freeview package in the UK as is & a full free at point of use streaming service with it.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @PaperCowboys I’m afraid that’s almost impossible. But have you spoken to Freeview? @FreeviewTV can you help please?

  • stormcab stormcab (@stormcab) reported

    @journeymanstev1 Dumped years ago. Just get freeview HD. All those 100s of extra channels you never watch anyway
