    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV @PhilipsCare I recently purchased a Philips Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR LED TV with Google Assistant does it support Freeview play as I can't get the apps to work.

  • NeelyFanForever ☘️NeelyFanTerry ☘️ (@NeelyFanForever) reported from Garforth, England

    @MaddFan1 Same thing happened to me a few years ago, I was quite happy watching @AJEnglish on Freeview and then suddenly it went on to freeview HD, which my box wasn't. My problem was finally solved when they started broadcasting live on Youtube.

    @LewisFeilder @GBNEWS @GBNfans Like most people here have said. GBNews is EVERYWHERE.....get the app on your phone.....All TVs have freeview just tap 236 on the remote... Google on computer and just scroll down until you see "watch live" .

  • LBCbackOnDAB LBCbackOnDAB (@LBCbackOnDAB) reported

    @linB2198 @TerryTsmith2000 @GBNEWS Sound out of synch on that clip isn’t it? Worse watching on freeview. Why haven’t they solved the sound issues after all this time?

  • DemonJim DemonJim (@DemonJim) reported

    @KilgoreJnr Ditto! Wondering if it’s because it’s maybe being taped (yes taped) in 8k, and there’s a bug in the conversion down to HD/1080p for TV or something (you using HD Freeview too?) Not seen it on my SD-only telly.

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @a516digital It was almost as though the Freeview reception at work was trolling the people watching in the canteen the other day. Whenever something was about to happen the screen went black and "no signal" only to return when the exciting bit was over.

    @TVPlayer Wow! Only used you as we had no signal for some channels on Freeview. You enjoy your fall into obscurity by removing #ITV and #CH4. When are you dropping all #BBC channels, just so I can finally wave you goodbye!📺

  • ewaniverse ewan (@ewaniverse) reported

    Bloody Freeview App on my telly decided to die so missed the first Italian goal. Wondering if free view app might be problem with itv hub. Chrome cast working fine though

  • loves_rats Vicki McDonald (@loves_rats) reported

  • dean_m_caldwell DEAN CALDWELL (@dean_m_caldwell) reported

    Do you know that out of 30 odd television channels on New Zealand's freeview. That there is only 4 - 5 mainstream channels. Out of these most popular channels. Most of the content is reality TV crap. I would love to see an old black and white 30s musical movie.
