  • 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.

    Oh sweet jesus @StuartYoung001 im watching a 1976 film #squirm on one of your channels @TalkingPicsTV on freeview 82 . So an electrical storm is going to hit and earth worms are going to attack a town ..... apparently. All a bit weird but i watch it with wine help

  • leighelse else{} (@leighelse) reported

    Today I had the misfortune of exploring the available programming on New Zealand's Freeview TV channels. I'm clearly not anyone's target market; to me it looks like wall-to-wall crap with brief sparkles of joy on Maori TV.

  • Mr___Boy John (@Mr___Boy) reported

    @Channel4 6 months after your major outage, I'm still seeing really bad audio sync on freeview... The internet is full of others saying the same thing. No other live TV has this issue. @WeAreWhisperTV is it just your F1 shows, that's all I watch on the channel?

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @johnuren1980 @adilray @RomeshRanga Hi John Freeview and are aware of issues with the TV guide and there will be a fix for this shortly. Scott.

  • JusLord JK (@JusLord) reported

    @Stillnocomment @chrisnagle Where I am, the Freeview is utter ****! I get about 15 TV channels. 1/2 mile up the road, they switch to a different transmitter & have the lot. I watch too much TV as is so is possibly a blessing but obv. I don't get as much value for £ from the bastarding TV licence as some.

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    It only seems like Yesterday that UK History began on the Freeview platform, with UK Bright Ideas running from 6am - 6pm showing content from UK Style, UK Food and UK Gardens. Then, lots of changes to the @UKTV network of channels.

  • DonPedley1 Don Pedley (@DonPedley1) reported

    Have questioned why so few stations on Freeview in BN12 area. The reply from Freeview indicates reception in the area is poor as only a relay service & many stations not provided. Here is the conversation & how to complain to improve the service if you agree (I want Sky Arts)

  • LukeCustardtv The CustardTV (@LukeCustardtv) reported

    @MrDavidEBrown No, not at all. It's all becoming very fragmented. What will Sky have when they lose the HBO stuff? I've always been a Sky customer but I'll ditch them and go Freeview and have HBO Max when that launches. It's so confusing at the moment.

    if anybody ever saw this twitter freeview sketch i would never get a job anywhere

  • fvtimeshares Freeview Timeshares (@fvtimeshares) reported

    @zealous44672945 Hi Zealous. The Cardiff transmitter is broadcasting all the usual Freeview services, but a separate mutliplex for the Cardiff region (equivalent to the Manchester multiplex) never made it to air, so it's been included on the site as a little joke.
