    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    There's nothing quite like your broadband connection dying to make you fear that you might be stuck with the standard terrestrial TV channels & Freeview only this Christmas 😱 Seems to be a known area outage so hopefully fixed soon 🤞Phone dead too of course.

    @SimonPGiles @emmaclairedow @FreeviewTV Hi Simon, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. High pressure has been present for a few days and hopefully will move on soon. If you have retuned, you will have to retune again once the weather changes.

    @SkyUK It is 💩. Picture isn’t that good. Has loads less channels than Sky Q. Cannot record. Streams stuff on the usual platforms. No Freeview unless the wifi drops. It is awful.

    @JamieLaundon This one is a pirate yeah, but given the strength it's probably in London somewhere. There's been some interesting propagation for the last week, European radio stations popping up and lots of complaints about Freeview not working.

    @ConsPost @DrSpock_PhD Meanwhile those of us living in older (and new) rural properties have broadband little faster than dial-up and no prospect of anything better as Openreach are too busy servicing newbuild estates. See also poor water pressure, many power cuts, lack of mobile signal, no freeview
