@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?

@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.

@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?

@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.

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.

@AdamDraper So true. I discovered recently that home VR headsets have been available since 2016, and a survey some time ago provided my first knowledge of them. Up until then I have never seen them advertised on Freeview channels, in free newspapers, or out and about. Conclusion: they're...

@ashlucas75 I honestly have never even heard of it before. I think it was in Abu Dhabi the one I saw was just flicking through freeview channels and found it on there (free sports channel No 64) at silly o'clock when I could not sleep. Was def good fun though 👍

@tvchrisstewart Yep, it's exploiting the sick to charge £7.90/hr for Freeview on very poor equipment. But don't blame Tories, blame New Labour. TV sets came in 2000 as part of PFI commitment to give all patients access to TV, as long as they paid. Patient power, they called it. Blair's a ****.

@xandypty AWS Elemental. We had a rackmount box at uni that was dedicated to sending a feed to AWS. We'd do a Degree Show broadcast which would go out on a web page hosted on AWS as well as Freeview DVB-T on a signal that only went as far as the Greenwich peninsula.

Of course the weather has changed and with it the signal from Freeview's temporary mast has yet again changed. Went from all the BBC channels and 6 other channels (no ITV/C4), Then as the warmer weather moved northwards we lost all the BBC channels and after a retune got the 6
