    @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.

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @DavidWhiteleyTV Freeview SD no problem. Freeview HD I get Meridian. Minor issue in the grand scheme of things though considering what's happening elsewhere in the world.

  • The4thSong ChelseafortheCup (@The4thSong) reported

    i did a freeview retune and now im getting liverpool tv instead of manchester and it sucks they dont do old style comedies like benny hill, hale and pace

  • TheCouchtripper TheCouchtripper (@TheCouchtripper) reported

    @scottygb It's because barely anyone watches normal TV, let alone the freeview channels that are so far down the list. You're welcome.

  • rickyblack1970 ricky black the BAM (@rickyblack1970) reported

    2 absolutely horrible teams in a scottish cup final today. Wont be watching, looking like it will be the sunderland game for me.. unless i can find something better to watch.. on a plus side though, EVERY BBC channel has disappeared from my freeview ☝

  • sharon_hall1977 sharon hall (@sharon_hall1977) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice stop moving the channels around it's doing my head in! Freeview is ****!

  • LwtEmmaBird Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported

    Hi @rmc47 - @melharbour suggested you might be able to help. Any ideas why a Freeview TV signal might disappear in the middle of the day? We've retuned, but it works fine until about 8.30am, then pixelated before finally displaying 'no signal' - so can't believe it's the tuning

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @MrJohnNicolson @CommonsDCMS How would a subscription model for Channel 4 even work? It's delivered free, over the air. Its only value is its freeview slot, which has to be funded by advertising or sponsorship. It could develop a subscription service, but anyone could do that now without buying Channel 4.

  • ErinMiddlemass2 Erin Middlemass (@ErinMiddlemass2) reported

    …as well as numerous add on packages and this money is being completely wasted. The customer service is absolutely shocking. I have relied on now tv rather than freeview etc for television in my home and am now left with nothing even though I’m paying upwards of £25 a month.

    @dannykellywords I don't feel so bad now with just Freeview and a radio. 📻🎙
