Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

@mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

@Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

BBC to "support the distribution of S4C services across multiple platforms". Adds weight to comment in BBC Three Public Interest Test about allocating bandwidth to S4C HD in Wales on Freeview.

Has anyone else got the Apple TV. Connection for their TV? It’s a nightmare and the worst possible way to watch TV. EE have given up their excellent system so I has no choice. Talk about long winded routes to watch. Mostly we have gone back to Freeview in the TV.

@Philips It's buggered! Freeview Play and all its associated Apps have all stopped, producing error FVP-300 and FVP-400. Even the @RakutenTV app has stopped. Can you do an urgent fix, please? This is caused from your recent update and many people are affected.

@tomhunt1988 The real answer is to end the licence fee and either get the BBC to take adverts or become a subscription based service, most people chose whether to pay for Sky, Netflix or Amazon etc, why must we be forced by law to pay for the BBC just to watch "Freeview"? #DefundTheBBC

@ClarNiUigin I wasn't sure how it worked on a free freeview box so was hoping it was a simple solution for you! Sometimes just a quick look can find these things. Glad it worked out

@7plus why is your Freeview app not working. Constantly loading. Have not received reply from tech support. Panasonic viera TV. All other channels work fine.

@dedado6 @GBNEWS No, Freeview and Freesat are different. Freeview is a digital terrestrial service and is received via a TV aerial. Freesat is a satellite service and is received via a satellite dish. The channels are largely the same but there are differences.

@CatharineHoey @GBNEWS Its broadcast on a signal that is airborn. You dont need a subscription or license to openly receive a freely broadcast signal on devices openly sold with the ability to receive it, otherwise you'd have to pay the annual fee when you buy a tv and freeview wouldnt be built in.
