As you can imagine, recent weather conditions have done lot of damage to various things, however there don't seem to be any reported faults for Hannington. There was Planned Engineering but as far as we know that work was completed. Have your signals returned? Check in your TV's tuning section that they appear to be normal strength and 100% quality.
I would check that your aerial seems intact and pointing in the correct direction and that your downlead looks undamaged (especially if it is old).
Also check all your coax plugs, connections, flyleads etc, unplug connectors check for corrosion or other problems and reconnect them. Flyleads are a common problem, try swapping/changing them. See what signal strengths and quality you are getting for the multiplexes (groups of channels) shown in your TV's tuning section.
Problematic connections, water ingress etc. will affect reception.
