I am with Morris Woodberry here. The first I heard of the disappearance of Film4 was a phone call froma friend in the middle of a programme I was enjoying on Saturday. Non-technical folk can be very distressed when their TV isn't working normally on their favourite channels.
Last night my internet search only pointed me to channnel 4's site and I e-mailed them. They e-mailed me this morning referring me to digital UK's site and don't seem to care at all that millions of viewers could be experiencing problems! Digital UK site doesn't suggest any problems or retuning needed - Just e-mailed them too. Only just now found your site - keep up the good work.
Why is this retune such a well kept secret?

Oh yes and I forgot. Everytime I retune, it takes ages to delete all the subscription, shopping and adult channels that clutter up the EPG. If I manually retune, it can affect the prog+/- button(s)depending on the box/tv model concerned.

Peter Young:
I have just found a bit of "official" info for this on the Freeview site help page. Curiously it's dated 2nd Aug and begins "Retune ... from 1st August" - implying perhaps someone cocked up with/was caught out by the technical issues concerned.
