  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • RevBrynstero0 Reverend Brynstero0 (@RevBrynstero0) reported

    Operation avoid the funeral is in full effect. Helped by my Freeview reception going to **** in the rain. So now watching The Samaritan on Prime. #NowWatching

  • markrprior Mark Prior (@markrprior) reported

    @mativity @rfgwyther No sign of either ITT on the Freeview schedule for any of 9's channels. @sophoife said it is possible to add the StanSport trial to a Stan trial though. Doesn't help if you don't have the capability to watch Stan though.

  • BMacfhearghuis Brian MacF (@BMacfhearghuis) reported

    @Smicht @JamesAmcvean Were they going to shoot down the Astra satellite broadcasting freeview out of spite?

  • Rachelgpeters Rachel Peters 🌞 (@Rachelgpeters) reported

    @JamesHalcrow It’s so bad, just went to find something, canned it and decided to stick to Freeview lol

  • BenaudsGhost Benauds Ghost (@BenaudsGhost) reported

    @soxgnasher Talking Pictures TV have a film on their Encore on demand service on Freeview called The Turners of Prospect Road (1947) about a Greyhound. Great scenes from inside the stadium.

  • timrobi12026017 tim robinson (@timrobi12026017) reported

    So poor I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • gavthemal Toontastic (@gavthemal) reported

    @anteggs49 Been none on most freeview channels for days. Not sure about terrestrial TV, as never really watch it, only for sport

  • dskiuk2 Dariusz Ski (@dskiuk2) reported

    I forgot to mention it, but the BBC have quietly re-added BBC Four HD on to Freeview after its recent axing for 5G mobile phone crap, your TV might need to be rescanned to add it. BBC News HD is still banished. #TOTP

  • JasonWTimmins Jason Timmins (@JasonWTimmins) reported

    @petercrouch Are you talking about Freeview, Freesat, Sky or Virgin Media? Actually, forget it, I'm not that interested in your first-world, millionaire 'problems.'

  • TomDavi8165081 Tom1871 (@TomDavi8165081) reported

    @RobertsonG Thank you. I am aware of that & would put it down to that, but it started happening on the odd occasion even months ago. Strange 🤔. I retuned my freeview box to see how that goes & chose South East instead of South / Southampton, just in case.
