    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    @ArchRose90 Stupid question Chris - how can one view GB News? Or am I just being monumentally thick. Looked on YouTube but nothing. Is it on Freeview?

  • SarahG20123 Sarah Gibbons (@SarahG20123) reported

    Anyone else’s Freeview not working?

  • ServicetechDave David Roberts (@ServicetechDave) reported

    FREEVIEW DVB-T RECEPTION. There is currently a High Barometric Weather system over the UK and this is causing reception problems as regards Freeview Channels. Nothing can be done about it apart from moving to Satellite TV. Please don't adjust your TV's Tuning?

  • PogleTog TogPogle (@PogleTog) reported

    **** this Wednesday bullshit...parliament freeview 9 till whatever,, just get tae **** now, low grade budget offerring transfer of legal powers. Stinking is what you are. Duff n Phelps.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    ...and there's not many TVs out there that do support Channel List Management (was only introduced to specs last year). So perhaps a feature to look out for the next time you are buying a Freeview Play TV.

  • AndyEMorrison Andy Morrison (@AndyEMorrison) reported

    @trevorw1953 It won't be- it will be using spare bandwidth available when CBBC closes down at 7pm. BBC4 is the best channel on Freeview imho.

  • ivedonethatokx Nobody told me there'd be days like these! (@ivedonethatokx) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV I really miss Talking Pictures channel, it was brilliant for my bedbound or less stimulated input days...With you from the start, and now you're gone..(and never called me mother!)Ever since the last update of my freeview ,wherefore art thou 😢?

  • GriffAurora Griff Griffith 💙 (@GriffAurora) reported

    @RaymondSnoddy @EvansTheCrime Government have admitted that current free-to-air technology cannot support a subscription service, which requires some form of encryption & password to work. The cost of retrofitting Freeview and every TV in the land would be massive - who will pay?

  • Rochdale20 Nick Ansley (@Rochdale20) reported

    We are not playing, not interested in the game on Sky so scrolling through freeview for something to watch. By the time you are into the channels starting at 20 you know its a bad telly night #bhafc

  • macman9999 macman9999 (@macman9999) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice You can get good clear pictures from Mars but not from Freeview, about time this problem was put right, i keep losing all BBC Channels, nothing sorts the problem out. its a service not fit for purpose.
