    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

    Bought a new telly before Christmas, because my 6 year old one stopped working. Upgraded to 32" android TV with Freeview but reception is terrible, & wireless isn't 100%. New cable got more channels, but still lousy quality, & upgraded broadband not available for my address. :(

    @archivetvmus71 Another programme I never watched in the 70s but I like now on Freeview. I like seeing the old cars, offices and street scenes.

    @UKTVPlayHelp It's not resolved at all. Sharp aquos tv and JVC tv. Tried playing through freeview play and casting via Samsung s22 Ultra. This app is terrible! It happens on no other. Disney plus, Amazon video, Netflix all work fine as do the ones on Freeview play.

    @ToeiAnimation In my early teens, there was this freeview channel called Kix. One day, a cool-looking cartoon called Dragon Ball Z was on (I think it was during the Cell Saga). Funny thing is I never remember the exact moment I found out how popular it was, or that it was an anime.
