    @GaryinScotland @mandapen Where can't you get Freeview? I can't get all the Freeview channels as I'm about as far away from a transmitter as you can get in the UK, and its not helped by my rubbish aerial, but I can still get at least a couple of dozen channels, even on a bad atmospherics day.

    As someone pointed out, Channel 4 didn’t broadcast Diana’s funeral, putting on kids cartoons instead. It’s kinda their job so that people on Freeview can watch something else while the others broadcast the gloomy ****, particularly in a pandemic where you can’t leave the house

    @Eliza Football is live on the Red Button. Freeview channel 601. 8pm to 10.15pm. No worries about net signal or time lag.

    @trianabutler @cleanfeed_ttvr @ITV I didn't se it but that was my first thought. I bet it looked atrocious on the SD Freeview service and ultra low definition on the +1 channel.

    @jimwaterson At least iPlayer is broadcast via an App on my smart TV therefore gets broadcast as HD. Freeview cannot managed HD on any more than 5 channels and BBC4 ain't one of them. SD is visually poor in big flatscreens

    @cs192 There isn’t a way *not* to get Freeview. Since 2002. But never let the facts, etc.

  • beajayemac bruce macfarlane #RejoinEU A49 (@beajayemac) reported

    @RichardPTh @martindvz No not at all. I've just scanned down all the FreeView channels and there were at least two which weren't featuring Nick the Greek.

    @scott_steve It is important. But if you don't want to watch it Freeview and Sky are doing other stuff. So change channels. Not a problem

  • ChrisJA15486090 Chris - Cymry & European! #FBPPR (@ChrisJA15486090) reported

    @SteelDalek1 And then close down BBC4 to stop you watching that instead! Have they forgotten most people have Freeview, Sky or Virgin to find other programmes on???

  • nickthegibbons nick gibbons (@nickthegibbons) reported

    @SimonMcCoyTV Aww feel sorry for you, cos I have 300 plus channels on freeview, so got plenty of choice, and Netflix and amazon prime so not really a problem for me...
