  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • voyseyboy Nick Cowley (@voyseyboy) reported

    @virginmedia I will stick with Freeview. I only wanted to see what packages were on offer. Thanks for your help.

  • wolvesbradders Phil Bradley (@wolvesbradders) reported

    @WolfWhoWanders Film4 is free to air. So will be on Freeview later. And probs on the C4 streaming service I guess

  • Dballesteros79 Dani (@Dballesteros79) reported

    @paulrjburke Trying to. Friggin freeview is sh&4e. Never seen it all

  • Nepomucene Olivier (@Nepomucene) reported

    @Jontafkasi Manage to go down to only one simple remote (Apple TV). Worth the effort… Freeview via HDHomerun, sound via a pair of Honepod mini. My TV is just a dumb screen

  • Marshall2000_uk Dan (Marshall Bros. Productions) (@Marshall2000_uk) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi Carol, that’s the issue it finds movies but I’m wanting to find TV content… especially Christmas specials. There are quite a few on as I’ve found them on my freeview box but it doesn’t have all the Sky channels so there will be some I’m missing but no matter which search 1/2

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    OK If I am back home and the time to mess around with the TV cables etc...later today if I cannot get the standalone Freeview box working. Its all down to working out how to add it into a fairly complicated roure. My fault for not paying attention when I dismantled it.

  • i_horseracing I Just Want To Watch Horseracing (@i_horseracing) reported

    @JoePorter1990 @MikeParcej Fair enough, Joe. At the end of the day anyone who wants to watch it can access it easily with a click of the remote, which is surely what the sport needs? It never bothers me what Freeview channel something is on if I want to watch it. 👍

  • lookoutwales2 Gareth Joy (@lookoutwales2) reported

    @StevenSaul @carollowe98 Apparently, Manchester TV (run by the former Made group) has disappeared off Freeview. Wouldn't be surprised if it's closed outright - it's a wonder to think the city could support two small local licences after what happened with Channel M.

  • pagettony tony paget (@pagettony) reported

    @SkyNews Skynews the worst channel on freeview #SkyNews #brokelockdownrules

  • Marshall2000_uk Dan (Marshall Bros. Productions) (@Marshall2000_uk) reported

    @skytv why is the Sky Q search so bad. The voice & text search find different content and neither of them seem to be able to find anything on the TV guide that has Christmas in the title. Used to love finding Christmas TV specials on the old Sky Box. Using Freeview box search now
