  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @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)

  • 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.

    @kaybar007 Any broadcast service - satellite, cable, or Freeview - has to obey the Ofcom size rules, no matter what technology they use. The examples you give of services like Netflix are online services, not broadcast, and not regulated by Ofcom.

    @englandcricket IS it going to be broadcast in England as the test match was? I can't see it in the Freeview listings(?). Or is it merely another narrow cast to some subscription service or other?

  • pompeydom Dominique Reynolds (@pompeydom) reported

    Well that's crap, looking forward to @englandcricket on @Channel4 today. Only to bloody look and see it's on @SkyCricket. Just had to text mum & say she can't watch it or listen to it as #talksport2 isn't on freeview! #englandcricket #T20Cricket

    @Djsat22 Hi there, we don't believe they will be getting Freeview Play, but we are working with the broadcasters directly to support the UK catch-up apps. They already support BBC iPlayer, and many already support ITV Hub, with the remaining models to follow. (1/2)

    @FifiOink Haha. First discovered can't watch live on Freeview app, then tried to make an account which wouldn't work, finally managed to hack my own account and then finally buffering issues 😭

  • angelauk1900 Angela🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 (@angelauk1900) reported

    @JanetMcwee I haven't had a TV aerial for about 20 years. No longer have a Sky box so I watch Freesat via TV ( similar to Freeview) and stream everything else, catchup, iplayers, netflix etc via internet although I do subscribe to NOW TV which is a Sky streaming service.

    @WeHateDiana I never had these shows I had freeview

  • Julesbaileyx Jules (@Julesbaileyx) reported

    Missed the first hour of Harry and Meghana interview so now won't be watching until tomorrow because Freeview TV sucks

    @Johnnypapa64 @NakedAirplane They should put shows like this on Freeview to counteract all the reality TV crap that's on there day in day out.

    @OurTardis63 I never got to watch this series of doctor who cause I could not find it on freeview :( On what channel can we watch doctor who these days?
