There are so many freeview channels now, it can be time consuming to look through all the channels to see which movies are coming up. There is now a solution – Follow Freeviewfilms on twitter. Their feed announces every movie shown on freeview, five minutes before the start. This means any time you feel like watching a movie, you can see what’s on offer. I’ve found it very useful particularly over the holiday season.
