Re: I've lost Five!!

Before you ask, no we don't have a Freeview telly that needs re-tuning, we have a Sky +HD box.
Suddenly yesterday, we lost channel 5 and Fiver (?) as well!!
I realised that the recording of Flash Forward that I set up to record ( it has recorded the last 2 episodes perfectly - no probs) was not happening, so I went to do it manually and that's when I couldn't find it. It went from 104 - 106 with no 105 channel. Thought I would set it up to record the repeat of it on the Fiver channel (or whatever the other C5 channel is) which is on tonight at 10, but that is missing too!!
And our BBC one has changed from Yorks and Lincs to London and ITV from Yorks to Central.
I had to restart the SKy box for the umpeteenth time yesterday afternoon as it keeps freezing or losing signal, so I wonder if that's when it happened.
I HATE phoning SKY with problems cos they always take ages to answer and it costs a fortune hanging on, but I see no alternative, unless one of you lovely people can help?

Just the usual ones about switching off at the wall and leaving for 30 seconds, then rebooting.

I hate trying to phone Sky as well, their customer services have got really rubbish lately.

Pink Babe - thank you!! I tried this this evening and I have Five back, - and Local BBC 1!! Weird, as it was exactly what I had done yesterday that must have lost me Five!! Seems to be the answer to all SKy problems - switch off, wait and then switch on again. It's always what SKy help tells you too, so thanks for saving me the phone call.

I haven't gotten around to re-tuning my set upstairs yet, so don't know if I've lost any.
In other news, I have lost a total of 30lbs in the last 5 or 6 months! Still a way to go though.
