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.

-
Enamel (@gin_vodka_fan) reportedCOMMENT: It needs an internet subscription, also an aerial for some progs, if your internet is slow you lose all progs, the manufacturers claim it's the internet problem so you cannot return the TV. It's a complete con for the companies to save supplying Freeview. 🤔🤔🤔
-
Velvettoatone (@TeamMPTS1) reportedAnother stupid idea is the 2034 plan to turn off Freeview. In no way will rural broadband be up to providing reliable services by then..the same applies to FM/MW radio. It's ridiculous meanness dressed up as 'progress' @SarahChampionMP @KarlTurnerMP @lukeakehurst
-
Levelling down (@LevellingDown) reported@reformparty_uk Freeview TV is yesterday's free-to-air. Freely is the future. Still free, still the same crap.
-
Oliver Scott (@Scottyyy06) reported3 on Sky, 1 (or 2) on freeview somewhere and 1 (or 2) on super league plus? Obviously easier said than done but would help grow the game
-
Disco Biscuit (@discobiscuit900) reported@Itinerantguy It's a corporate circle jerk that never ends. They just give awards to themselves though circuitous routes. Only the retards with freeview still believe anything that comes from their pursed anuses. Sadly, there are a LOT of retards with freeview.
-
fizzforbrexit (@fizzforbrexit) reportedI have never missed watching terrestrial TV, it won't be a big leap to also cancel Freeview. I'll just read even more.

Gary Phillips (@gazpunch) reported@Hadders41183 @Lost_In_Films_ I’ve still got that’s Tv 2 on Freeview, (65) watching Never mind your language now, well just this minute finished. Gutted if that’s going now 😢
-
Nat (@NatJPeters) reported@MCalder1990 @grok ...on her tele (bless her, never got more than Freeview) and the early KO that day was United Swansea (Louis Van Gaal's first game in charge of Utd). They released the teams and I saw "Blackett" in the Utd team, I assumed he had a brother or someone with same surname in...
