  • 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)

  • 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

    @beckyboopta Same in our house but with random Freeview channels (never the main ones) not movies. Judge Judy seems to be one of the faves… 🙄

    @dem_cath The TV's awful this year. We're all going through a rubbish time, TV should be a welcome distraction for a day or so, but they are just showing rubbish. I have freeview and it's all like this, sadly. I hope your book makes you smile.

    @paullewismoney Every other ad is abt gambling on freeview with the usual disclaimer, don't gamble too much, it's bad for you. Worrying & sad.

  • WhenIsBirths Justin Lewis (whenisbirths@tooting.ch) (@WhenIsBirths) reported

    Still can't quite believe Cleese, who could have worked for almost any TV network in the world over the past 25 years, is going to do something for something at the arse-end of Freeview that no serious journalist or broadcaster would go near.

  • sugarcanebook E. E. Fry (@sugarcanebook) reported

    @virginmedia Also, losing all of our recorded programmes and movies yet again, unable to pre record any Xmas TV or movies, losing all of our favourites and our series links. FreeView and catch up have rendered the Tivo service sold to us as obsolete and we've not been offered any compensation

  • DJGaryBaldy DJGaryBaldy (@DJGaryBaldy) reported

    @yoothaismyqueen If there's a film that's being shown way too often on Freeview it's that film it's never off Talking Pictures only so many times you can watch it in 12 months.

    So we don’t have a TV license because all we watch is Netflix, YouTube and Disney + but now I want to watch **** evening TV so I’m gonna get a license and freeview. Question: is freeview something I can pay for and download or do I need a box or whatever x
