    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

  • 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

    I thought Channel 4 HD regions were now A Thing but there are an awful lot of irrelevant adverts on the Ulster region Freeview feed. 🤔

  • ROfiron Anti-Growth Coalition (@ROfiron) reported

    @dave43law @thecoastguy Freeview Jesus being one of the worst

  • phoebemonkey Ruth Mutch 👩🏻‍🦽 (@phoebemonkey) reported

    I have a suspicion the Freeview engineer who came to “fix” my connection a while ago is responsible for this madness. He spent hours swopping around cables. I couldn’t check what he’d done because the cables are inaccessible to me (and the Virgin Hub was out of reach!)

  • DaveKendallPho1 Dave Kendall Photo (@DaveKendallPho1) reported

    Massive outage of Freeview tv across the Country. Has Putin got a hand in this ?

  • tarasis Robert McGovern (@tarasis) reported

    @delilahdirk @jonrog1 I support when I can, and bypass / pirate when there are unknown / ridiculous delays for something to get the the UK for watching / Europe (BUT I will still watch when it does come to Europe so it gets the views - be it Disney, Paramount+, Amazon Freeview, or whoever)
