Help! CBeebies has gone missing!

I can't find CBeebies on my freeview channels anymore - its become 'More4+1' for some strange reason. CBBC has also gone - its channel is now ITV4. Been through all the channels and its not listed anywhere. none of the other channels has changed. I just can't think what to do to find it again - anyone any ideas? Ds's will be distraught - managed to fob them off with a video today but life won't be worth living if I can't sort this out soon....

If it was like my freeview receiver, you may need to re-download channels to get them back or to find the 'new' channel number it is on. Worked for me.HTH

If it is on freeview I think it has moved to 70 something?

Roobietherednosedreindeer · 14/12/2005 21:39

71 I think

walkinginawinterBundleland · 14/12/2005 21:39

71

Oh no, how are you coping? Surprised you didn't post on the depressed thread.

Ours used to be 31 and has now become 71, am just glad I found out without too much disruption.

elliott · 14/12/2005 21:45

Yes, ours was 31 too - I will check again on 71, but I did scroll through ALL of them in increasing desperation and rising panic
How do you re-download the channels? Sounds like that's what I'll have to do....

Should be in your system tools or services list IIRC.

elliott · 14/12/2005 21:53

They should be in your menu somewhere! Sorry not more helpful but I switched to Sky couple of years ago and have forgotten how to use the freeview!!

elliott · 14/12/2005 21:58

OK, I've found the menu and pressed a few buttons that look hopeful - its chugging away now doing something so lets hope it works!
Why do they do this to us?
