    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @TalkTV I have lost talk tv on my freeview platform is their an issue with it thanks

  • deb_the_dj Deborah Marshall 💙 (@deb_the_dj) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @ExmoorOn Never thought to ask to be honest. Luckily I can get Radio Northampton on Freeview so at least I can listen in.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie 🇺🇦 (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @putthetellyon And on top of that HD channels are actually closing down on Freeview. The picture quality of low bit-rate SD channels is increasingly an issue in a world where people have bigger TV and HD streaming services as the norm.

  • alexander_qosfc Alexander (@alexander_qosfc) reported

    @scottiepark45 @BBCSportScot I agree, I'd much rather it was freeview, but 2 things: 1)It isn't the SFA that sold the rights it was UEFA, so not much could be done about it 2)There have been 'positive' talks about free to air games, which never happened with Sky Hopefully it ends up being better for the fans

  • EstelleBisset Estelle Bisset (@EstelleBisset) reported

    @jayrayner1 There are that many choices of chanels today that even with just freeview there are loads of alternatives so don't see the problem🤔

  • SimonWood2k5 Simon Wood (@SimonWood2k5) reported

    @PhilJonesy3 @MetroUK It's SD on Freeview which doesn't help but not at all good even for SD.

  • katy_whitton Katy (@katy_whitton) reported

    Bear in mind that the original Freeview (UK) group was launched back in 2002 so Channel 5 is only 20 or so years late Must have been all of that Public Service stuff they were organising which meant they couldn't join the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Sky 16/

  • viridispicus _insert witticism here_ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@viridispicus) reported

    @BootstrapCook It depends on signal strength, direction to transmitter, and what's in the way. Digital signals (such as Freeview) are broadly binary: the TV understands enough, you have a picture - or nothing. Amplifiers exist, but they amplify noise as much as signal, so beware promises.

  • nisbetbryce Nisbet Bryce (@nisbetbryce) reported

    @BootstrapCook Sometimes. The cabling should work fine so long as the box and your TV have an HDMI port. Problem might be whether the Freeview signal in your area is strong enough to be picked up by a small aerial.

    If betting on the #WorldSnookerChampionship be aware that Freeview is several seconds faster than satellite with on line in a poor third place. Best place to bet the foyer of The Crucible or even in the auditorium! #snooker
