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?

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

@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.

With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

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.

@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.

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.

@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?

@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

@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.

@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

@calexico65 Where I am there was always a poor signal back in the day. I remember my dad had a 500ft high aerial nailed to the side of the house at one point. Now it’s on Freeview but tbh I never watch it. In my defence I rarely watch NI News either.

@GBNfans Still not a great picture on my freeview. Don't know if it's their end or just a weak signal but needs to be HD. Something to go up against question time on Thursdays. More variety/presenters...its starting to get a bit "samey" all the time.

@ant_hkuk @GBNEWS Are you with the #Freeview? They have issues all the time don't they? Some people are not getting #GBNews broadcast to them at all, confirmed by @FreeviewAdvice. And I'm sure they dealt with that a few days back you know, the synching issues. What show did you last notice it on?.

Why is @TVNZ making it harder for kiwis to access their content? Why split your on demand content from freeview and require people to have yet another app and login? Are you planning on charging for it? Or do you just enjoy causing inconvenience? @TVNZondemand

@BBC6Music i along with several other broadcast engineers currently shouting at our radio that there are still radio transmissions. DAB is transmitted as an RF signal. As is DVB-T - Freeview telly. It’s not all online or satellite!

@JakeWSimons Was taken off British freeview TV a few years ago. Surprised it was still available in the US. Can think of at least one other network that should also be removed from standard freeview in the UK.
