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.

@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.

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

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.

@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.

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@cutex24 Hello. Thanks for letting us know. It is possible that it is temporary due to weather conditions. Where are you watching from (and via which service, Freeview etc)?

@TVNZ @1NewsNZ can you please fix your live streaming for TV1.. it's been glitchy for the last few days. Only happens on TV1 and none of the other channels. Noticed it on freeview streaming and the TVNZ app, and the glitches happen at the same timecode on different connections.

@FreeviewAdvice Our JVC smart TV will only let us change channels if we go onto the Freeview Play Guide, it won’t change if we just type in the number using the remote (remote works for everything else. Any help please? We’ve also got an issue with bbc iPlayer not working.

@cutex24 Hi. It may be worth a re-tune if you've not tried that already. If you are still having problems it may be worth contacting Freeview themselves: Problems watching Freeview | Freeview

If you want factual news watch Aljaazeera news on Freeview 285. If you want the Tory news watch BBC all about Jousting and lambs being born, a distraction from the real issues happening at home around the world. Your choice as an intelligent society.

My dad: “I don’t think we’ve got that Tory news channel on the Freeview have we? I’ve never seen it” Me, to myself: “No, I delete it every time you ask me to do the channel rescan”

@MarkDob_ Oh really? Suppose Jarrett knows the value of a good TV deal in the UK from Impact’s run on Challenge. Challenge airing in FreeView was a huge help in drawing those big houses for TNA in the UK during the first half of the 2010s
