    @dancludlow Never thought of it even. Not that worried, there'll be a solution. It supposedly has Freesat & Freeview on it. Will have to try to get D's son out here, if he ever stays still, he'll know! TV is 2020 model, hardly top of the range but good enough for me.

    I didn't think I could watch the Oscars cos I don't have Sky Showcase, was about to turn the tv off, thought I'd try Sky Arts (its on Freeview so I can get that channel) on the off chance its on there and it is, I've never watched the Oscars before just seen clips #Oscars

    @AceGerry @ShimonaGordon You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service - such as ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview

  • andyjameshicks Andy Hicks (@andyjameshicks) reported

    @AaronBastani It's the reason I'd never buy licence. (That and Sky taking Sky Sports News off Freeview if I'm honest.)

    @natsbeIoved i don’t have sky HELP my stupid flat has freeview👎

  • jonwensley Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported

    @Cyanosis1966 @BATC_London @DPJHodges 1) How do you (technically) have a subscription service that doesn’t require a set top box/internet connectivity? 18m people use Freeview, & 1.8m households have no internet access 3) If you need to pay £20/month to Sky/Virgin to access it, it is more expensive than a licence fee

  • Mc_Lote Mik Lote (@Mc_Lote) reported

    @JeremyVineOn5 No. They provide the Freeview network, are there to inform us in an unbiased way without undue influence from vested interests. Rupert Murdoch could never do that nor any of his successors.

  • ViolaAppleton6 Viola Appleton (@ViolaAppleton6) reported

    @o_sheilagh @albundysdad No one is forcing you to cancel your sky, Freeview etc. Just watch on demand.

  • BBCTees BBC Radio Tees (@BBCTees) reported

    We are aware of an issue affecting our FM transmission due to power issues at the transmitter at Eston Nab. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this and are working to resolve it as soon as possible. DAB and Freeview signals are unaffected.

    @TheVikingDane @GayTory You only need a TV License if you watch/record live television on any service (e.g. BBC1/C4/Freeview, Sky,Virgin) or if you use iPlayer. BBCs goons rely on self incrimination so don't ever let them in unless they have a warrant and police/official present.
