It was supposed to be turned off at lunchtime

My Channel 5 went off air at 9.30am this morning

How is that lunchtime?????



So I watched it on analogue ~ I am lucky that in this house we have ch 5 on analogue

Why don't they switch over at 3am?

????

My Fiver is still working. Some of the channel listings are blank though.

Toots - turn off at the back and leave for 1 min, turn on again and then switch it to stand-by using the remote.

Switch it back on again and re-scan.

hope that works for you.

Has anybody else lost Fiver and Five US?

Just tried to do this with Humax. Seemed to go fine then whole thing just crashes and freezes. Have tried three times now. DH watching analogue portable in bedroom. Any ideas?

We've just had to retune again to get CBeebies - nearly cried when it didn't come up the first time but after another go, peace is restored here!

Try re-tuning it again, might come up. All our channels are back. Cbeebies comes up as 71 still and CITV is 72

AArgh! CBeebies has disappeared. Anyone else found this? What a nightmare. Used to be channel 71 for us, but no friggin sign of it now. Still have CITV and CBBC. Any suggestions?

I would rather be able to subscribe to 'gay rabbit' if it were my sort of thing rather than just being given it whether we want it or not.

hmpff.
