    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

    @shannadelicacy @juliegrizzy I have freeview which has lots of never watch channels but it's free and meets our requirements. I do miss almost all sports/new films but I'm not paying £80 odd per month for them. Prime, Netflix and the rest are a waste of money. They can all get stuffed....

    @rvkirk I have a love/hate relationship with Sharpe. Love: it's a great show. Hate: in the early days of Freeview I'd be scrolling through the EPG and get very excited to see Sharpe, only to find on switching that it was in UKTV Gold, which was a premium channel :( I never learnt.

    It makes me frustrated cause i see so many hard workers out here busting their asses off, underselling themselves, posting freeview content almost every day and yall would jump in their dms begging for free ****. People barely sub to them, let alone tip.

    @BillyHoward423 For context, Freeview is the 'free' digital tv service, and I only have the box because the tv is so old it can't pick up the signal. Even the box is a supermarket own-brand and cost me £19 in 2013. It runs away scared at the thought of actual technology

    @Helga_Otto_ @David_Suchet Helga, I don't know if this will help....I don't have Sky either, but, Sky Arts has a (free) channel on Freeview here, so I wonder if it does in Germany too. It is Channel No. 11 on the Freeview listing here in the UK.

    @FreeviewAU I'm sure you mean well, but if you're not on the east coast, it is ****ing impossible to safely predict when a show might start on any given network on #Freeview. ****ing impossible. #TV #FTA

    @janetrmason @BBCBreakfast @sallynugent I suspect most of those families have full sky packages, iPhones and other luxuries. We eat well and cheaply BUT I have to use Freeview and I cannot afford a £100's top rated phone. My families goes without nothing BUT we live to our means. I witness many who claim to be poor...
