    Anyone here who lives in London, who watches, or at least, can watch Freeview TV (terrestrial, rather than satellite/streamed TV), can you check whether it's working? I'm not home, so can't check. Wondering if there is a Crystal Palace transmitter problem. Thanks

    @Uptotherewithit @TVSanjeev Well that stuff is paid for so just strip the woke crap & run World Service type news & all the old programs on Freeview, but not funded by a Licence Fee or the taxpayer. All other sport, comedy, films, etc can go on Advert or subscription model, and that pays for the former!

  • VinnieVonStarr1 Vinnie Von Starr (@VinnieVonStarr1) reported

    @1neilhallam @RussInCheshire They are prevented from watching them if they can't pay. What if all she has is a freeview TV with no facilities to play on-demand? Noone should be denied access to such a basic thing in the 21st century. Why do you support an extra tax that can easily be abolished?

  • TruthTeller1909 Mark (@TruthTeller1909) reported

    @SamPEAK1951 @NadineDorries The principle is people shouldn't be forced to pay for something they don't want, need or support. Yes, we all pay for essential services that some may not use but that's not the same as a TV broadcaster. If they are so good go subscription only and come off Freeview

  • Paulmh5 Paul Hughes (@Paulmh5) reported

    @RussInCheshire These set of stats don't even cover that the licence fee pays in to support the infrastructure to deliver the "other channels" including broadband roll-outs as well as being a founding force behind Freeview. #SaveOurBBC

    @theninetyninep1 @cononeilluk @luckyma_man Only problem with that argument is you assume elderly people ONLY watch bbc, itv, ch4, ch5.. I know many where I live in the peak park (where terrestrial reception is poor , even freeview is difficult ) who already subscribe to sky some even have Netflix ..so it’s nothing new

  • Montrealbloke Richard - Entrepreneur & progressive 🇨🇦 🇵🇸 (@Montrealbloke) reported

    @andymhamilton Is one of the ideas. Need Freeview to do encryption, probably will do in 2027. Hope it is subscription, think Beeb has something to offer, just slimmed down. Sell most radio off would help.

  • MrSammyJames Sammy James (@MrSammyJames) reported

    @BerishaShow But if it's a subscription service there would be no reason to keep those prohibitively expensive stations going. They would chase profits like any other business. Also, please tell me how subscription freeview TV / FM radio could work from a technical point of view?

  • lewismj_waioeka Michael Lewis (@lewismj_waioeka) reported

    @LaylaMoran @BBCOxford If the BBC is great, it will have no trouble getting subscribers, what are you afraid of? Why force say pensioners or the poor to pay a regressive tax? They may be happy with FreeView, why should they be forced into paying for the BBC if they don't want it?

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    Set to happen on Wednesday (Jan. 19th) on Freeview: -Ideal World moves from Channel 22 to Channel 50. -Paramount Network become 5Action on Channel 32. -TJC moves from Channel 50 to Channel 22.

  • WanderingSadu Harry Mincherley (@WanderingSadu) reported

    @Trampolinecare @bantalols Yep. They don't watch Freeview stuff. Even the concept of having to sit down to watch stuff at a specific time is laughable to them.
