Hi @HIGHLANDERS68 

The aerial app is only available on Sky Glass. The aerial connection exists physically but is disabled in the UK (it is there because it's a legal requirement in Italy).

There was a period of time where it was incorrectly enabled for some.

Freeview worked for 2 days. Had a aerial app in apps page. Clicked on it Freeview opened up. Even a full TV guide. Then app disappeared. Come on Sky put it back on.

@HIGHLANDERS68  You've been given the correct reply, Sky won't switch it back on.

Your TV will have Freeview built in, why not use that?

It's not Freeview. Freeview is a brand name. The Stream puck and Glass TVs have a basic Digital Terrestrial Tuner for receiving free-to-air channels, all of which are also available on the Freeview service. 
It's highly unlikely that EveryoneTV, the company who own the Freeview brand, will allow their branding on a competitors subscription serviced hardware, particularly when they are shortly to launch their own Freely streaming service on their own streaming device.

Having to use two controllers is annoying especially when we have to pay so much for the service.
