BBC TV channels down/bad signal in your area?

My dear old mum has been missing her daily BBC channels for the past two weeks. I've also noticed an intermittent issue on my TV, so I'm wondering if it's an issue everywhere. We've both retuned our TV's, but it's still up and down.

Have you had any issues with your BBC channels and does anyone know if they've announced an excuse for it, as I cannot find anything online.

Didn’t click on Zulu’s link, but haven’t all the channels been retuned recently?

There were notices that you had to retune your TV. This happened to us. Re-tuned and no problems since.
