last post in the thread says:
"The drama finally ends.
We had a new LNB fitted today and *everything is working again, 3/4 of a bar signal strength and full bar for quality, happy days.
*Can now view BBC 1 NW again instead of being forced to watch BBC 1 London"

The Freesat home transponder carries the data needed to set the Freesat region appropriate to a given postcode.
If the Freesat home transponder is not accessible, the postcode cannot be used and a Default region is used.
The Default region is 101 BBC London 103 ITV1 [London] - 112 ITV1 + 1 being absent.
The Freesat home transponder is horizontally polarised.
Loss of horizontally polarised transponders is a likely cause of this circumstance.

My first message contained a useful list but was treated as spam and lost.
Here is a list showing transmission parameters that can be used to diagnose where faults lie:
England HD - Default LCN Frequ p srate type modsys FEC ServiceName101 - Pastebin.com
maybe that works?

Is it repeatable?
I assume you have tried a Freesat tune, which is obviously the first thing to do when presented with such a peculiar circumstance?
If so, maybe a reset might fix it?
Your comment "103 is either London or Meridian" is very odd, surely it has to be one or the other?
But, looking for a rational explanation, can you say:
What region you get on 112 ITV1 + 1?
Do you get 105 Channel 5 HD?
