@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

@TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

@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.

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?

@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.

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.

@rahim94 I don't know anyone with Netflix, Amazon or any streaming service. They're either unhappy with freeview or slightly happy with freesat and their catchup services!

Watching Porridge on Freeview classic 70’s BBC comedy brilliantly funny and clever comedy . Such a difference to all the dumbed down American television served up on Netflix these days

If anybody wants to know why YouTube is so popular just take a look at FreeView and the old very old programs and films stacked with Adds that work as though subliminal messaging! 1hr program 20mins plus crap! 😡

@TheNorthernEcho Almost full service restored! 122 Freeview channels stored after retuning my TV! In my car however, the TFM signal is still too weak to use! So its the end of listening to TFM radio in Harrogate!

I finally figured out how to get sky arts woo. It was pick, I retuned it and then it vanished. You have to do a "network channel scan" if you're on Freeview and it vanishes.

@Natzz6487 @MissNicoleDeans I wouldn’t worry too much. You’ll still see the original on prime time tv at Christmas while this awful looking remake will get a slot on the Christmas channel on freeview at 7am in the morning on the 8th of December. Don’t fret

@Freeview Advice 22 channels tuned (no HD) at a very low signal level (~10% indicated on TV), some break up in Northallerton. Surely it should be better than this at only 12miles to Bilsdale? The system is not letting me DM you with postcode and number.
