  • iainsykes2014 Iain Sykes (@iainsykes2014) reported from Blackburn, England

    @KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @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.

    I don't watch Emmerdale any more, but I do like the terse episode summaries they put up on freeview. "Marlon bodypops. Something is loud. Terrible smell at the pub."

  • empire24453 EmpireKicking (@empire24453) reported

    @arqiva Around Saltburn location and not receiving any Freeview TV signals, Is it down again..? Bilsdale temporary tower would be the nearest. It's been 48 hours since down.

  • wozdm38 warren myers (@wozdm38) reported

    @bbcthree @BBCiPlayer So crap you actually came back to freeview...lol

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @htwcentral @sgordon_the87 @cleanfeed_ttvr I would say that would be a bad idea but to be fair Sky/Comcast are doing a good job with Sky Arts and I was seriously amazed they put it on Freeview 11 and not in the waste land of the epg.

  • dgtwatter Dot on the Landscape (or portrait if you prefer) (@dgtwatter) reported

    WTF! Anyone else lost ITV, C4 and C5 on Freeview? Just rescanned the digibox when prompted and they've ****** off (technical term). Box now defaulting to BBC3 on channel 23.

  • KeithCP2 Keith Pates (@KeithCP2) reported

    @IMPACTWRESTLING I used to watch it, but they deserted freeview and went pay per view, never mind I enjoy watching AEW on Freeview lots of Impact Wrestlers have gone there like Hardy for one big name, and there are others including Women

  • smurph25 Jamie Murphy (@smurph25) reported

    @bbcthree Maybe should've added a [*] on Freeview HD number, as it is not available in Wales (part time S4C HD service) and Scotland (BBC Scotland HD).

  • sgordon_the87 Ste Gordon (@sgordon_the87) reported

    @russty_russ In SD it’s on 231, but on HD it’s 107. I’m not sure how that works but there you go. RT’s HD service isn’t too far behind it on Freeview either.

  • Al_Hine 𝔸𝕝 ℍ𝕚𝕟𝕖 (@Al_Hine) reported

    @BbcBring Bollocks! Not in HD on my dog end of a @Freeview service.

  • mickey_omeara Mickey O'Meara (@mickey_omeara) reported

    @FreeviewTV I'm still receiving the wrong ITV Region on Channel 103. On Channel 3 I receive ITV Meridian South which is correct but on Channel 103 I'm receiving ITV Meridian Kent. Freesat had the same problem but was fixed in April last year. When do Freeview plan to fix this?
