  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    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!!

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  • EdenFisher Peter Clarke (@EdenFisher) reported

    @NadineDorries how come RT is still on Freeview, you said they'd been shut down. #fail

  • lanerobertlane Robert Falla-Louvét 🔭🪐🚀 (@lanerobertlane) reported

    @scottygb @FloraCarmichael @alistaircoleman Freeview feed seemed to get to Aqiva via the Hotbird satellite, since RT on freeview went down when that feed was cut, as opposed to when the Astra 2 satellite (carrying sky/freesat’s feed) dropped it.

  • joe90kane 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿j_kane🇵🇸 #pwME (@joe90kane) reported

    @Peasweat2 My bad. RT not available on Freeview 234 but still broadcasting on Freeview 113.

  • ceejay_epping Colin (@ceejay_epping) reported

    @NM_Rdg @Jim_Cornelius @NadineDorries Yes but Freeview got its programme feed via satellite and that was shut down by the EU at about 4.45pm. This is why Freeview is now showing the ‘not available’ message.

  • clayton_mick mick clayton (@clayton_mick) reported

    @georgegalloway You are not wrong. Just checked. Service not available on my Freeview. Britain now a police state. Fascism has arrived what the Luftwaffe failed to do. RIP Britain as a democracy.

    The EU have managed to get RT off-air in the UK except for Freeview HD by removing the signal from the satellite uplink based in Luxembourg.
