    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

    @BBCLauraKT Welcome to 'Mournhub'. Thank gawd for freeview, Netflix etc. If it really get s bad I'll dust off my videos!

  • ascottreid Scott Reid (@ascottreid) reported

    @scottygb Also - and I'm not an expert in this and I could be wrong - is there not a technical issue where it's a bad idea for too many Freeview channels to show the same thing at the same time? I'd assumed that's why BBC Three and BBC Four were off the air rather than simulcasting.

    @Margare62511181 Apart from a few webmail issues Eir is the way to go. SKY treated me like a nuisance caller instead of a valued customer.Maybe things have changed over the last ten years & it no longer sends legally sounding threatening letters even tho it was its own fault. Advise: Freeview😟

  • Ale_n_Metal j t (@Ale_n_Metal) reported

    @NateDawg27 @shedden Yep. A lot of older/isolated people will only have freeview/radio so putting it just on bbc news 24/world service for rolling reporting with any new news on standard news bulletin programmes would be better

  • sheilatester Sheila Ennis (@sheilatester) reported

    @I__W______ I expect most of us are. Things not too bad except on #bbc1. I don't have Netflix but plenty to choose on Freeview.

  • BenVanDerVelde Ben Van Der Velde (@BenVanDerVelde) reported

    Internet is down, so forced to forage for a movie on Freeview. Stumbled on Equilibrium with Christian Bale and Sean Bean and woah baby is it incredibly silly dystopia. I have just watched a scene containing, and I can't believe I'm writing this, fascist tai chi.

  • Lemonhunny Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported

    @Toughtruth5 @StGilesHighKirk Nobody had to have it on 24/7. If you did, you're stupid. I probably haven't watched 3 hours all told, because amazingly in 2022, there are lots and lots of other free channels, showing regular programmes, even without subscriptions (Freeview etc). Or maybe, just turn it off?
