Just been to retune my uncles as the frequencies have changed in the North West today. He seemed to have loads when I retuned it, but I noticed some were wrongly named. CBS Reality (whatever it is) was called Liverpool TV for example.

Not just me then (also in north west)
Did not have any at all last night when I went to watch traffic cops.
Seems ok after doing a reboot/retune but have flicked through the channels yet so do not know if any are missing

Same problem here (N.West too).

Has someone cocked up with the Winter Hill transmitter?

They have previous for this.

It's not a cock-up, it's part of the general 700MHz clearance programme. They often run an overlaid broadcast announcement for a couple of weeks.

My TV and Youview box have been banging on about this for ages, and I retuned both yesterday as advised on screen. Shortly after, the Youview box told me it needed retuning, and BBC1 HD on the TV is unwatchable, so I'll tune the TV again later and see if that helps.

Down here in the southeast near Dover we have several channels missing from freeview via an aerial but can get them on Freesat .
