    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?

    @Eliza Football is live on the Red Button. Freeview channel 601. 8pm to 10.15pm. No worries about net signal or time lag.

  • geordiechris48 Chris Johnson (@geordiechris48) reported

    @CourtTVUK Freeview picture breaking up. Seems to be ok on satellite. Are you having problems with Ch 89 or might it be a more localised transmitter problem?

  • IBLaughing Ian Bowden (@IBLaughing) reported

    How did Netflix & Chill get to be slang for a hook-up? What about Sky Q & ****? Amazon Prime & ****? Freeview & ****? All4 & ***********? That said, I do identify with Netflix the most. I want a commitment and if they try to leave I send several emails begging them not to.

  • tenjinuk Darren Wheatley (@tenjinuk) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Could you tell me if there is anyone I can contact to log a problem with Freeview reception?

    @virginmedia That £70 being for broadband which is on average about 20Mbps and TiVO box that has less channels than Freeview. The TiVO box is about 5/6 year old and has been crap slow since day one.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @davidkeatsuk This of course was given as the reason for suspending the former BBC Red Button 301 service on Freeview during the Opening Ceremony of London 2012 - BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Three and BBC News all showing live or partial coverage.
