    @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.

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

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

    @TalkingPicsTV Please make an Xbox app for encore. It would compete me (terrible freeview reception means I can’t get the broadcast channel)

  • SJP74 ESC SJP 🏳️‍🌈 👨‍🚀🇬🇧 (@SJP74) reported

    Anyone else no tv signal #BBCBreakfast #gmb @itv @bbc #freeview 🤔

  • arranmclean1 Arran McLean (@arranmclean1) reported

    @talktalk freeview tv not working AGAIN-3rd time in 2 wks. Multiple days at a time. On day 4 of latest outage now. No problems with cables. Resetting router&box and retuning doesn’t work. I’m not ringing again as the call centre people don’t understand. Website no help

    I am going to treat this Chinese takeaway just like I treated the ten minute freeview on TV X and The Adult Channel when I was a teenager: plan to drag it out for as long as possible, but I know I'll be finished in under two minutes! #TheOneShow #EURO2022

    @Clare16652923 @Nigel_Farage Problem is you can't watch any free live TV on other channels. That law needs to change. The BBC should be removed from Freeview as it's pay TV. On sky & virgin the picture can be scrambled. People then should be free to watch any channel except the BBC without a licence

  • ChuckWilsn Chuck Wilson (@ChuckWilsn) reported

    @terry562506 @AmazonHelp How? I've had this problem since I bought the new TV 2 weeks ago. The smaller ombre in the bedding works fine. The new one gets PLR 5027error and a couple others when I try to play Freeview movie or TV show.

  • FramptonRoz Roz Frampton (@FramptonRoz) reported

    @NadineDorries @BBC @FreeviewTV Nadine, please sort out Freeview. People can't access TV or have total blackout so often! This last fortnight or so, it hadn't worked most of the time. Most people don't report outages because they don't know where to do so &/or can't. Get sorted!

  • YNWA_4Life Trist  (@YNWA_4Life) reported

    Once again reminded how shockingly poor the HD quality is on Freeview. (Watching the match on ITV HD)

  • Kster91 Karl 🐢 (@Kster91) reported

    back to back episodes of Pokémon are on Pop TV (no, I've never heard of it either) Freeview 206 🤓

  • Mathe_Musician MatheMusician (@Mathe_Musician) reported

    @SorrelMayWood We take up the offer of 30 days free from time to time. Nice while it lasts, but as we usually joke that the Amazon order will arrive at least 3 days before it says it will, it never seems worth paying. (We wouldn't use the other features - way too much to watch on freeview.)
