    Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

    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?

  • 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.

  • dearaunty .Dear Aunty (@dearaunty) reported

    @JonathanBrash How can that possibly be factual - you'd have to have the viewing figures for every film, show, drama, freeview, pay per view network available?

  • Steven59066 Steven Dawson (@Steven59066) reported

    @BethUndressed Accidents do happen, don't they beth, it was such a shame that both babestation and babenation on freeview channels 673 and 674 never came back on, X me back

  • Bartlet27722793 Richard Bartlett (@Bartlet27722793) reported

    @GhostOfCorkey @DeathlyAcorn @KayBurley It was the case that radio rights came with the combined TV licence. But not anymore, except perhaps if you only listen to the radio via FreeView, satellite or cable. TVLicensing confirms this in their FAQs. What is better than BBC that you do watch please? Or just nothing live and never BBC, not even on-demand/catch-up?? --Genuinely interested.

  • PVPAST Dr Phil 5to1 (@PVPAST) reported

    @chellew_grant @_MaccaNZ Which started about the turn of the century, that's when I stopped getting the paper and gave away my freeview box. Only watch MSM news when I'm at my parents & as of last night that will be never again. Do we have to go through 45 yrs worth of tyranny to ride against the system?

  • Tuftenstein Tuftenstein (@Tuftenstein) reported

    @SkinTrader2 That's one that I've never seen, but I think it's showing on one of the Freeview channels this week, so I'll set the Betamax.📺💀

  • Dean24148909 𝟙𝟘𝟙𝟘𝟙𝟘 Lord Of the caravan @ Fircombe Hall™ (@Dean24148909) reported

    hoovered all the crap out and replaced 2 of the 4 main fuses), put back together and plugged it in ... the digi card started to load all the "freeview" TV stuff, & ended up with some radio channels and the BBC channels = just dead chuffed

  • Anupsetwoman An Upset Woman (@Anupsetwoman) reported

    Is there some reason only the @ITV 2 freeview signal keeps breaking up every evening? It's unwatchable and I've retuned the TV several times already.

  • Nugent4nil Robert Burns (@Nugent4nil) reported

    WTF there are currently four John Wayne films on freeview right now! Is it John Wayne month!

  • dagenhamboy graham phillips (@dagenhamboy) reported

    @johnredwood They were all shite this Christmas not everyone as sky or subscription tv so are relying on normal/ freeview so I very poor show from them.

  • KippaxRyan180 👑🅁🅈🄰🄽👑 (@KippaxRyan180) reported
