@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.

@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.

@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

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.

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.

@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?

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?

@FreeviewAdvice Good evening, it now appears that ITV 3 and 4, More 4 and Film 4 are not recording subtitles. BBC, ITV are fine. All subtitles work on TV, it is just the Freeview Recorder that has the issue. Regards.

Yet again poor (well no) freeview signal. Seems that yet again much of the south east is suffering from blackouts this evening. OH's annoyed because he's missing the SAS BBC show, although I did point out he could go onto BBC iplayer which should work.

Old Panasonic Freeview PVR no good for new ITV player and it had fault:, watch catch-up progs and it would occasionally freeze for 0.5secs. Bought a new Manhattan and it's just as crap - goes slow-mo for 2secs at random times. Why is everything such junk? @FreeviewTV

Is it me or is the sound quality on @BBCTwo US Elections programme rather poor? Watching on BBC Two HD on Freeview. And I don't mean one of the contributors not having a microphone.
