    @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 !

  • 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 😂

    @MartinSLewis We only started a paid service with disney+ 2 years ago. Last year we shared with my brother & sister (not allowed but not stopped yet!) so works out £91 per household. But me & my wife hardly watch anything so we'll be dropping out. Freeview is all we really watch & have a pvr

  • Williamson_Irl Craig Williamson (@Williamson_Irl) reported from Neillstown, Leinster

    @lordbambitoyou Picking up the UK Freeview signal then I'd say!

  • BerniKennedy Bernardine Kennedy (Maxwell) (@BerniKennedy) reported

    I'm getting twitchy already... neighbours have scaffolding all around their house and its totally taken down our #Sky signal. No TV. For at least four weeks. Even Freeview won't work. No Corrie. No Judge Judy. Nothing. #bereft #tvaddicted

  • eugene_doherty Eugene Doherty (@eugene_doherty) reported

    @haroldthimbleby Some years back when we had broadband I thought I'd have a look at freeview via aerial to save money but couldn't get a signal. Then when weeding one day I found a coiled up coax cable where next door had been working on their gutters, cut the cable and just decided to hide it.

  • MarkL00775 Mark L (@MarkL00775) reported

    @MartinSLewis Why pay for a service when there are so much free? Try Pluto tv (free) some great stuff on there if can't find anything to watch on freeview

  • featuredreamer Ian S Rickard (@featuredreamer) reported

    @MarkValencia I've never seen it Mark. It doesn't come up on my Freeview channel list.

  • Barfette Barfette (@Barfette) reported

    @MartinSLewis Well speaking as someone who has JUST terrestrial tv they are all pretty bad, I tend to watch Freeview and Channel Five more often.
