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

Joan Moss (@JoanMos87521028) reported@daveainsworth63 @TalkingPicsTV What Number on Freeview is Talking pictures I am struggling to find the channel. Please help.

Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported@SGV_UK @EdanaThe2nd I think I had something similar in my last flat as I couldn't get a signal for Freeview. It was a Roku stick I plugged into my TV to stream via my broadband
-
MIdAS is a Potato (@mrmidas2k) reported@yellowhairdpunk How? Shits on ITV. They have replays literally on the "on demand" app. Yes, the showings aren't live, that sucks, but you can absolutely follow AEW watching regular *** freeview and getting PPV's.

13th Century Schizoid Man 🇬🇧 (@13thschizoidman) reported@harrythesignman @andrewc44104127 Phones aren't allowed No Internet is allowed TV is basic freeview. Food is basic Get a clue before you post dumb ****

Gabrielle Stubbs (@gabystubbs1) reported@thetimes I wish that Slow Horses was on the freeview channels
-
Trish Macfarlane 🏴🏴 (@TrishMacf) reported@DarranPearce @DJL78 Instead the BBC flood the screens with antiques, quizzes, property programmes and we don't have a choice as to whether to pay the licence fee or not! Call me old-fashioned, but TV was much better years ago and most of the Freeview channels are sheer crap!
-
BrendanB (@Brendan80704486) reported@superTV247 Simple answer of course would just be to let viewers decide and make the tv licence voluntary. If people want the BBC they will pay for it. The licence is a poll tax - the poorest and the richest pay the same - and very regressive. Why force the poor to pay to watch freeview tv

Mitch W 71 (@Mitch_1142) reported@1Atkins @ThatsTVOfficial xenon81Message posted on30 Jul 2026 03:21 PM - last edited: 30 Jul 2026 03:22 PM That's TV has gradually removed all its channels from Sky, Freesat and Virgin Media over the last few months. It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.
