  • 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.

  • 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.

    @a516digital Oh that's interesting. I wonder why I couldn't get it to work. In any case, services like Ketchup's Freeview-play compatible service seem to be the way forward now.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @steveboswell @gsvalentine 2013/14 Samsungs certainly did - support for MHEG-IC was part of getting certified with Freeview HD logo.

  • tcoffaVEVO tcoffa (@tcoffaVEVO) reported

    whats freeview play and why did that british **** appear on my tv

  • GreavesIan Ian Greaves (@GreavesIan) reported

    @worldoftelly The Sky Arts signal on Freeview tonight is more shocking than Johnny Rotten, so I'll have to bow out.

  • Jayne82526450 🎈Jayney🎈 (@Jayne82526450) reported

    @photomikeyhere @ajcdeane Freeview has to be the worst - hundreds of channels and nothing on any of them!!

  • TheStephenRalph Stephen 3.5% #FBPE #FBPEGlobal🇪🇺#FBCoalition2024 (@TheStephenRalph) reported

    @Tom___Scott @BBC @cbbc The problem there is that BBC4 is the same channel as CBBC. They share the same frequency on Freeview. So, when CBBC goes off air, it turns into BBC4.

    When I was younger Wealthy: sky box Poor: Freeview

  • RalphGill25 Ralph Gill (@RalphGill25) reported

    @thismorning Schools - Given that we have a National Curriculum why can't lessons be broadcast on additional Freeview TV channels? Most households have more than one way to watch TV and its not relying on broadband. Class teachers can provide support and mark homework.

  • Buzzle_70 Susie B 💫 (@Buzzle_70) reported

    So I got rid of Sky now and noticed on the Freeview guide you can instantly go back half an hour and watch catch up without watching live tv. #DefundTheBBC I might cancel mine as watch mainly YouTube and Netflix these days.

  • McsheenMartin martin mcsheen (@McsheenMartin) reported

    We live in a digital age. I can find three hundred and twelvety channels of **** on the most basic freeview TV. How on earth could we get lessons to pupils en masse ?
