    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @WalkingRichard Trying to get my GenX friend to watch more TV. There is LOADS on Freeview channels you cannot get streaming. Streaming catalogues are horrifically narrow And watching something on a whim when you come across it also expands your exposure to stuff you'd never select on a streamer

    @a516digital Its excellent lift conditions out side tonight, bad news for freeview users, but great news for long distance reception, my talconeston reception is bang on 100% thats over 68 miles away.

  • Huriye Huriye (@Huriye) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @grannypatt It's not you, it's living in certain areas watching Freeview is a lottery. With me it's also the BBC channels that come up no signal due to certain atmospheric conditions? Who knows? Last year a TV engineer came & adjusted the communal aerial on the roof. Briefly helped now not😔

    @danidotx Worth trying Al Jazeera on Freeview channel 235 for a different perspective on international issues.

  • mathewilson Mat Wilson (@mathewilson) reported

    Holy ****, the Freeview channel Now 80s is playing Prince's "Batdance" right now.

  • recovringlawyer Matt (@recovringlawyer) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, I’m trying to get RTÉ on Freeview in Belfast. I’ve tuned my TV and all the other channels save RTÉ are showing up. I should be in an area that benefits from the RTÉ signal.

  • Emily23355 Emily♥️ (@Emily23355) reported

    So annoying, my favourite channel, freeview 20 weak signal so no longer works.

  • Old_Smudger Martyn (@Old_Smudger) reported

    @Richard_K_P @OldBlueyes @virginmedia That’s unfair quoting facts people 😜 I had the TV outage. It was during the day and could easily use Freeview until it came back. WiFi was fine. Since VM/O2 merger I’ve had my mobile data doubled and broadband increased to 350 from 200 - for free! Roaming announcement also 👍👍

  • MissLionHeart J🇬🇧🇳🇬🦁❤ (@MissLionHeart) reported

    Why is the TV adaptation of Magpie Murders on BritBox? That is absolute horse ****! I want it on Freeview! #ThisMorning
