Had precisely the same problem as Tom Howes. All HD channels there on Saturday morning, set the box to record Doc Who - nothing- 50, 51, 52 and 54 still missing today. They were full signal strength and quality. Really annoying

Mine's back on too. Its fine and I'm happy but how do we know its back for good.
There were no faults reported during this period, and I got an automated reply from BBC. Can we do anything else. I'd live in fear of setting the recorder for something I care about seeing in future on the HD channels.

Hi, I am at the uni halls in Clifton (NG11) and we all have lost the COM4 (SDN) channels. It says we shouldn't get analogue, but we all still can and everybody has tried resetting and retuning their devices but to no avail. Please help. (NG11 an)
