    @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

    @TRobinsonNewEra @BBC They should close down freeview immediately. They cant afford to keep paying for GB news being broadcast if their viewers don't pay.

    Very disapointed with my brand new LG C5 tv: it has no Freeview Play, or Freely. The magic remote is awful. #fail @LGUKCare @LGUK
