On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

@virginmedia absolute joke, customer for 20+ yrs, informed services have had a price increase from £99 to £147, rang up to change services to reduce costs, best they can do is Freeview for £89?! Person I spoke to unhelpful and uninterested 🤯

@NadineDorries Not much of a restriction, it's still available on Freeview which most people have. Close it down completely.

(@PATVOne1) reported
@steveeld101 @SkyNews It's a tricky one, as it's legally innocent until proven guilty, until Ofcom says they've broken the rules, RT is classed as being impartial, so if Sky (or Freeview) were to remove "an impartial channel" for being biased, they'd be the ones breaking the impartiality rule.

Sometimes I have to laugh & wonder. BARB (broadcasting audience research board). I'm being asked if I want to be part of the 54,000 households to be asked about a range of issues" Me? One of over a million who lost Freeview for 6 months and had no "broadcasting"... Oh **** yes

@JillStuart17 While it is currently under investigation by Ofcom to decide whether it has broken the impartiality rule, RT still holds a valid licence to broadcast, so cannot be removed by Freeview (or Sky), otherwise they'd be the ones breaking Ofcom's code.

@Agar5588 @NadineDorries I think that's different to the satellite source being taken down. Sky or Freeview could have acted unilaterally to block broadcast, whereas satellite block removed the option
