Richard: You might need to have your aerial checked, but I would wait until Wednesday just to see if the "final switchover" configuration at Nottingham fixes the problem.

Thanks Briantist, out of curiosity I tried plugging the aerial cable directly into the TV and the analogue channels were still working so I don't think the aerial is completely broken (it would be too much of a coincidence!) although you are probably talking about needing a new aerial.
I'll do a re-tune on Wednesday next week and see what happens, thanks for your help.

Briantist: Yes, I had all the normal analogue channels, 1 through 5 inclusive and definitely including BBC2. The picture quality was pretty grainy, had previously been using a signal booster for analogue TV prior to digital being available, if memory serves.
