Indeed, mine is back too. I did report it on the BBC reception test so I'll wait and see if I get any response to that.
Interesting a small portion of something was recorded in HD on Friday evening, so the signal must have returned briefly then.

Last week all he HD stations disappeared and
subsequently returned on Saturday, all was well
until Sunday when the normal bbc1/2 had difficulty in resolving a picture. The Hd content is first class with 71% signal strength. There is no problem with other
freeview stations it is just BBC. The aerial is
in the loft and this is temporary until S/coldfield starts tranmission.

I'm really frustrated with BBC reception. I'm watching freeview SD, all channels are fine except BBC 1 & 2, they are scrambled & jumpy 60% of the time. Done all the advice re: interference from other devices, retunjng, hard reset. Always the same problem. IMO digital is rubbish, I'd rather have a bit of snow all the time on analogue than nothing 50% of the time then perfect signal 50% of the time. I'm in a 6th floor flat facing west with a brand new aerial on the balcony & uninstructed view for miles!!!

Woody: Is your aerial set for vertical polarisation and pointing to the Kimberley transmitter? What is reception like on BBC3 or BBC News? (These are also carried on Mux BBCA). It is possible at your location that signals have been found and channels stored for alternative transmitters including Waltham, Belmont and Sutton Coldfield. Check in the 800s of the channel list for versions of BBC1&2 that work correctly. If there are no other versions stored and all BBC channels are breaking up look for single frequency interference or intermittent interference. One other possibility is the signal is too strong, in which case an attenuator would need to be used in the aerial feed.
