    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

    @BBC The viewing public are not ‘celebrating’ being forced to fund your moribund corporation. The BBC is not an essential service, so the taxpayer should not be forced to pay for it, just for the privilege of watching Freeview on their own televisions. #DefundTheBBC

    @BBC The viewing public should not be forced to fund a service they have not chosen, just so they can watch Freeview on their own television sets. Like Amazon Prime and Netflix, the BBC should now compete in the marketplace and offer a subscription service. #defundthebbc

    ▶ Channel List Management provides an alternative channel list via the internet to compatible devices and allows broadcasters to do a SD/HD switch. ▶ But the functionality was only added to Freeview Play recently, so not all Freeview Play devices are guaranteed to support this.
