    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 😂

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

    @ch55648479 @MadRuberto_49 @BBCNews We're talking about the BBC. I pay to use the service and it didn't deliver for me. I'm unsure why Freeview is coming in to it.

  • rottenplaice Rottenplaice (@rottenplaice) reported

    @higginsdavidw #cblive and most Irish broadcasting is so utterly terrible and worse value for money I simply don't watch or listen. I watch UK Freeview TV. Irish presenters are overpaid amateurs and frequently I find the female presenters overly focusing on "girlie" issues. It's embarrassing

  • PimlicoPlumbers Pimlico (@PimlicoPlumbers) reported

    Vaccination passport anyone? Just about to make the case for getting a system up and running before it's too late - live on @RTUKnews @4:15pm It seems this issue won't go away, so maybe it's time we just got on with it!!?? Sky 511 Freeview 113

  • KarenHu04464593 Karen Hudson (@KarenHu04464593) reported

    @FinancialReview @FreeviewAU Freeview is not working properly menu wont go away, still just loads and loads I have had to switch over to Telstra Box just to watch tv. Thanks for that

  • spaceninjauk Mark 👨‍👦‍👦👩‍👧🎮🎬⚽️ (@spaceninjauk) reported

    @xStormxBringeRx Yea i find tv terrible, i have basic freeview as i cant justify paying for a tv service

  • CanveyViews Canvey Views (@CanveyViews) reported

    Trying to work out what causes the interence on UHF 21 474 MHz during the day on Canvey Island. Can't all be down to atmospherics. Would be interested to hear if anyone has any ideas about this issue. It seems to make the Kent freeview comux unwatchable here during daylight hours

  • Fetch13 Andrew Bell (@Fetch13) reported

    I've been watching various reruns of Star Trek on freeview. And I can't help from wondering why the Enterprise doesn't have an IT department or at least why Starfleet Engineering doesn't have an IT division.

  • toaoan Maiden Auntie (@toaoan) reported

    @chronicjayne @ITV So frustrating, but I have seen a couple of people on here say they didn't have any problems watching on Freeview. I was on Sky, how about you?

  • madcow42 Sarah 🌼 & Jasper 🐾 (@madcow42) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Only option for us is Sky unless I want a streaming service like Netflix or Amazon Prime but then a need decent broadband to too. Found Freesat wasn’t much better than freeview and Virgin isn’t installed by me so not an option

  • GaryinScotland Gary Cummins (@GaryinScotland) reported

    @Samsmilew @RonMooreMoreRon Hello Samantha. Freeview channels are all that many receive. In 2021 the BBC chose to show the same program about the DofE across all its national TV and radio stations. Folk never had the option of switching over to another BBC channel.
