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.

@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.

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

@LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

@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.

@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.

@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.

@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

@FreeviewAdvice Thanks for the reply George, much appreciated. Guess im.gonna have to go direct and some questions then...! Admittedly I thought it was your owners whose name I forget. Sadly Freeview is becoming a continually more stifled service, it's a shame.

@benji_writer @FutureDarren Hahaha, an oldie but a goldie. I watch a lot of 80s pop vids on Freeview. But why are they often such bad quality? And the aspect ratios off?

Did you know a decision is to be made in the next 8 years that will see the demise of freeview. No more tv received via an aerial on the house. Meaning that you will have to pay a subscription for an online streaming service. Backdoor privatisation of the bbc!

Just turned over to Forces TV on Freeview to see a message that it ends on the 30th of June.. where am I going to get my Blake's 7 fix now (I don't have Sky or Virgin) As EE are getting the spectrum, I had better be getting better signal around here at least!

@PeterMcGuireIE Alternative is to go down the route of a NordVPN connection which usually works with BBC iPlayer and ITV. And then use the Irish TV on-demand services. I love have a TV with that ability to jump between the stations! Film4, BBC3, Sky Arts, Sky News, CNN all available on freeview

@colinwiseman3 We only have about 20 Freeview tv channels, none are Sky. The LNB on our satellite dish is dead and we haven’t had it repaired so no Freesat either… We rely on online services (although the Freeview online app service doesn’t work for us.)

@LornaGoodyear Paramount+ is a new streaming service so it's built into many TVs. But actually there are Freeview channels that need an internet connection so yes there are channels thatb can't be watched on normal TVs
