Michael: I don't know why this didn't show up as a fault in the BBC system.
Fingers crossed it doesn't happen again.

And I've just discovered the hd channels have gone again. The signal quality is zero i notice on the hd channels, but signal strength is at 10/10. Earlier today both strength and quality were at 10/10. Is this a clue to the problem do you think?

Cheers Briantist I've just called the BBC and they have a had a series of reports of this problem across nottingham: postcodes ng1 to ng20 - so this covers me and my fellow nottingham commenters.
The BBC talk to the people who run the transmitters as I understand - doesn't sound like we license payers get to contact them.
Something is going on - annoying how it simply says 'the transmitter has no problems etc' if it said it did (which there clearly are) I could get on with my Easter weekend without puzzling over if it my aerial and kit and whether I need to do something. The public are happy if they are informed!!!
Thanks Briantist I hope this helps you other commentators
Sit and wait - they'll be back
