Janet Steele: Fort William is served by the Cow Hill transmitter which is a relay of the main station at Torosay (not Inverarish which you have posted under). Torosay is currently reported to be off air which will also cause a loss of signal at all of it's relays. As the fault originates at a main station it will be being worked on continuously until it is back on air. Do not attempt to retune your TV, your channels will return on their own as soon as the transmitter is fixed.
