  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @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

    @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

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    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)

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

    Dear @HumaxUK I can't get the Freeview YouTube app to open on my 4000T. Tried everything, no software update. Please help, thanks 👍

  • wigglet182 Wigglet182 (@wigglet182) reported

    @HumaxUK YouTube app has stopped working. Please can this be resolved asap! Poor service! Freeview box everything else works apart from YouTube app. Get this sorted 👎

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @FernRiddell I totally forgot about this... damn the lack of a +1 on Freeview! Though I do have this on HD DVD (because all the cool people have HD DVD)

  • SRL_82 Simon Lumley™ 🇬🇧 (@SRL_82) reported

    @3DMarkB @Classicbritcom Channel 91 (Great TV channel) on standard Freeview service.

  • FrancisAShailes Francis A Shailes (@FrancisAShailes) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @berkobabe UK, but I don't have a TV that can get Freeview. I had a digibox but it's very poor at reception now (I'm near Bristol). I wish one day TPTV could be fed to the internet like Drama and Yesterday etc.... but I know there are obstacles to that.

    @VentiGirlboss ITS NOT MY FAULT MY MUM NEVER PAID PAST FREEVIEW TV

  • Happyintelect Eyetothesky (@Happyintelect) reported

    Benny Hill's back on UK #Freeview I'm not offended by him, and it's nothing to do with being 'woke', but just don't find him funny. It's bad enough having his alter-ego Boris Johnson squatting at Westminster. He also performs long, boring & unfunny comedy skits, just like Hill.

  • DJLujoso DJ Lujoso (@DJLujoso) reported

    Hehe.. I have worked out a way to get in & out of the ULEZ undetected. Gonna go scope it out in a bit. Trouble is, if it fails I'll have to pay TFL twelve quid & I won't know if it works for three days... Beats sitting in watching freeview, eh?

  • B0redBen Ben G (@B0redBen) reported

    @76rufus @motomatters What else is on Freeview on a Sunday? TV is always crap on a Sunday because they know people are out doing stuff or watching football/ racing. They just stick old films on...

  • Fantastic__Mr Signore Fantastico (On Parler as @FantasticMr) (@Fantastic__Mr) reported

    @ANDIBABY8 I feel your pain there. I've only got the cooncil tv aka freeview so always having a battle with my ****** aerial for a signal lol
