    @Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

    @victoria_racing I had a weird one from a service group but to do with Kogan lack of service. Can't see Optus in this unless someone is listening. Or reading..all I want is an app fix. Not paying for fixing freeview

  • dozecat007 Boris D'Burger-Zilla (@dozecat007) reported

    Abolish TV Tax, that's £13 per month into poor peoples' hands and there is plenty on Freeview. No excuse for Today and Sport presenters being made BBC millionairres #bbcaq

  • christie_rudd Chris/Christie/Chrissy❤️ (@christie_rudd) reported

    @LauraRebeccaa @tvshows_addict1 @KCoubrough17 I'm watching it all again to get proper sense on seasons I haven't been able to see. Season 16&17 are on Freeview with ads but too many and then season 23 I found on Hulu got rid of that app because it was stupid amounts of ads every 2 seconds

  • Platypuss Louise (@Platypuss) reported

    @TPTVEncore How do I get talking Pictures on Freeview? I have tried finding it but the channel does not come up. I have scanned the TV and restarted but still no luck, can anyone help?

  • LouiseRawAuthor Dr Louise Raw (@LouiseRawAuthor) reported

    Part 2 of #TheLabourFiles now! Freeview 235 Al Jazeera. It’s painful watching footage of @jeremycorbyn being bullied & mobbed again. But @andrewfeinstein is great, condemning REAL,vile antisemitism & showing the dishonesty of labelling mere support for Palestinians as that.

  • marktheman2010 Mark.🌱🐞🦋🌱🌻🌼🌷🌸🍄🦔 (@marktheman2010) reported

    @zombiestitcher Do you have Freeview Channel 65 "That's TV (UK)? It's back-to-back music videos. and old sitcoms From 10.00 to 13.00 and again at 15.00 to 17.00 it's "That's 80s - The Best Music" Some great videos worth having on in the background when your are not working.

    @FrancisAShailes Hi Francis, I am so very sorry Freeview do not currently offer a service for computer or laptops via the web browser. To access content we would recommend you use the broadcasters websites such as BBC iplayer, ITV Hub, All4, MY 5, UKTV Play and Together TV via your PC.

    @SatonmyButt @freesat_tv I pay 2.49 a month to remove ITV adverts. My Tv signal doesn’t work well enough for freeview anymore. It’s well worth it! Plus there is UKTV app with drama yesterday and Dave freeview channels (free but adverts)
