    @valis64 @AndyWoodturner My mum's got a Sky Q box and has no clue how to use it apart from turning it on and flicking through the channels (not using the guide) 🙄 Problem is, she likes a lot of the Sky channels, otherwise I'd have had her back on Freeview by now.

    @bririley_70 Man you gotta love the account name. No false advertising there. Also, pretty sure this concept was done before on one of the late night freeview channels years ago. Think the bastard McKenzie was involved in the channel though so have never gone back there.

    @tstrachanedit I used to watch it every weekend when it was on freeview but could never justify the spend when it went behind a paywall. Couldn’t beat having a lazy Saturday with endless cuppa’s and just tv. Good times!

    ⏰ #COP26 is now only days away. But what should world leaders be focusing on? Present problems or future challenges? We'll be discussing this on the #DailyClimateShow with @Dr_Gilbz and @StanleyPJohnson. 🕡6:30pm 📺Sky 501/Freeview 233

    @AyoCaesar Awww, don't be cruel. Put a little fish paste on the collar. Ash Sarkar! Ask Sarkar! You're going to be on GB News (freeview channel 236) next segment! It seems somebody may have taken issue with something you have said. Hmmmmmmmmm...

    @SoupelinaJail Haven't seen Breaking Bad. Only have freeview stuff.

    @AndyWilsonFS @MoneySavingExp Not all of them are essentials and what the OP might pay out for the flat. TV package is not essential that is what freeview is for. Service charges are not always paid for on flats as that normally covers areas of shared ownership eg hallways grass etc.

    Does anyone I know on Twitter know about the tech of TV sets? I mainly watch it through my Sky box, but I can also get Freeview on terrestrial. That seemed to be hooked up via my VCR - yes, I still have one! Haven’t used it for years and now it seems to have broken, and… 1/2

    @skytv no sky glass as vodafone broadband down, and TV won't pick up freeview as router still on

  • ThaisSher Thais Sher (@ThaisSher) reported

    Hopefully it will regain Signal soon... Al Jazeera News is on the Freeview Channel list too on that TV but not BBC News...?! Ironic I guess...
