    @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 😂

    @afneil I've seen these on Freeview. Both low key, undramatic, no gimmicks and no inappropriate latter-day commentators popping up to give their spin, and yet so magnetic. Very much in the image of Thames TV's world class, The World at War. (If you've never seen, see before you die!)

  • gocycling21 gocycling2 (@gocycling21) reported

    @prodnose I'm going back to Freeview so I don't have to pay virgin for their lousy expensive service. Get my broadband from someone else now as well

  • joan_ant192 Joan Anthony (@joan_ant192) reported

    @IWishIWasFunnyy @PIMC66 @RoboScorpion Nothing to do with Momentum - they support Starmer Your choice not to watch a documentary by a British producer with British contributors on British media (freeview) overseen by Ofcom has nothing to do with Qatar That's just a convenient excuse to keep your fingers in your ears

  • VedekJames James Davies (@VedekJames) reported

    @jimwaterson @NickGTC Freeview's delay was pretty bad.

  • DazzThomas Darren Thomas 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@DazzThomas) reported

    @virginmedia @Spencer83809805 Virgin Media do not provide a reliable service. My brother has recorded some stuff from Forces tv on his freeview box and he can still watch them.

  • phoebemonkey Ruth Mutch 👩🏻‍🦽 (@phoebemonkey) reported

    I have a suspicion the Freeview engineer who came to “fix” my connection a while ago is responsible for this madness. He spent hours swopping around cables. I couldn’t check what he’d done because the cables are inaccessible to me (and the Virgin Hub was out of reach!)

  • aljwatson Alex Watson (@aljwatson) reported

    @send_it_baby @MartinSLewis Why would the BBC become a subscription service? Which other public services should be optional subscriptions? How do you make the radio a subscription service? What about people who watch the BBC through FTA Freeview boxes? How do you paywall that? Why would you even want to?

  • BohemianHarpy Bohemian Harpy KPSS (@BohemianHarpy) reported

    Once you've got netflix you realise how many utterly crap films there are, they're a waste of electricity. Even what I thought of as rubbish films when I only had freeview now look top 10%

  • RogerCa56028932 Roger Campbell (@RogerCa56028932) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @MetalGearHazumu I live in Norwich, NR2. When I try to access freeview, I have a blank screen with the message: NO SERVICE.

  • RsKelv Kelvin R. Smith P&J Project (@RsKelv) reported

    @otivar55 Most people will probably steer clear of @AJEnglish (Freeview CH 235) and never see this remarkable 4-part documentary. Hopefully, it will be allowed to be screened on UK mainstream TV.
