    Hotel’s not bad at all. One of them little gaffs where they’ve got several and I had to carry my suitcase up three flights of stairs, but an unexpected fridge and if I can work out how to get the Freeview on I’ll be absolutely laughing here. Sainsbury’s over the road an all.

    Dear Freeview, why do you always air the same **** from night's ago? Or stuff like movies, which where shown a week ago? Do you know how many movies and show's there is? Change thing's up cause repetitive crap every day, every week of every month of the year- ain't worth paying

  • Tetchywayo Tetchywayo (@Tetchywayo) reported

    @orbette Even the slightest wind caused issues with our digital freeview signal (which living on coast made it permanently unwatchable). Most of yer live tv should still be watchable on iPlayer, ITVHub, All4 etc. though.

    Sitting in be watching #TV for the last half hour and all of a sudden the picture and sound start failing! One of the neighbours must be walking about. It’s getting so bad I’ll have to change channel! #Freeview

    Anybody fancy crowdfunding BigJetTV to help it get a slot on Freeview? Somewhere between GBNews and RT.

  • danblythewriter Daniel Blythe (@danblythewriter) reported

    My @TalkingPicsTV signal on Freeview is scrambled worse than one of Alain's messages to London tonight... looks like we'll be watching #SecretArmy on TPTV Encore after the event this week!

  • samaldridge2003 samaldridge2003 (@samaldridge2003) reported

    Freeview is ****

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    I swear #Freeview TV was far more resilient to bad weather than before the decent frequencies were sold off to mobile companies. Granted a mobile signal probably more useful in an extreme weather situation than being able to watch ITV+1, but still...

    Series recording on @HumaxUK Freeview box (NOT Freesat) FVP-4000T not been working for a couple of weeks. Records single programs and first of a series ok, but does not recognise subsequent episodes. Problem not limited to any particular channel(s). What’s happening?
