@bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

@Brekkietweets @FreeviewTV Freeview is massively stuck in an SD slow lane, and by far the weakest of the TV platforms. Freesat is definitely the better of the two major free TV providers.

@HistoryNerdNZ Only use the Sky dish foir Freeview when the fibre goes down (rarely as we get a feed from both directions).

@IanRedman11 @FreeviewTV Exactly - and it didn't need to be that way - there could have been a plan from the moment the first HD service launched in 2010. Best option now might be a hard switchover (like France did) where Freeview SD basically closes one day and is replaced by a HD equivalent the next.

@IanRedman11 @BBCNews Even when set to london no local news just red screen for 4 mins every 30 mins - its a BBC issue not a settings issue - you watch via Freeview you get local news or via sky you can retune to local news but via app on all hdmi plug in devices no local news

@adamhale_ @IanRedman11 @FreeviewTV The issue is though that HD space is only limited due to inaction by Freeview. Even with losing that extra capacity to 5G had a long term plan been put in place when COM7/8 were launched we should have a platform now with space for around 30 HD channels and the rest in SD.

@Mark56623345 I hear that down to something like the BBC can't rent out any slots to a 3rd party as part of deal the BBC signed with OFCOM to get a Freeview SD multiplex (Now known as BBC A) back in 2002. But The BBC can rent out slots on BBC B - their HD multiplex.

@virginmedia i will give credit to your guy on the phone desperate to try and keep me as a customer, and you have nothing for 15yrs loyalty other than a tv package we call freeview elsewhere, slower speeds and a landline i haven't used in 10yrs.
