They said they would post when they had something, so I suppose we just have to wait. Bit poor really.

Indeed poor! It shouldn't take days to indentify the issue and push and update or sort out their uplink.

Touch wood, seems OK at present.

I just tried all channels and no blackout yet. I wonder if they did something and not said anything. It would be good to know if they also have worked on  the intermittent static That shows up as soon as you change the channel and then disappear.

Mine keeps going black when watching any UHD HDR content whether this on Sky sports channel but also on demand content. Is this the same issue or do I need to call customer service 

[Ajaja]

That's interesting. 

Push a software update through the menu and reboot the box and see if it happen again.  

Let the box set the right HDR. 

This blacking out issue could be effcting people slightly different. I would sit tight until we hear  back form Sky.

Have tried the software update and restart but was still happening on football and F1.

if I watch in HD no issues just UHD HDR looks will be a call in the morning unless it's the TV but have tried HDMI and PlayStation 5 no issues

This is most likely a broadcasting issue and uplink glitch that Sky has to resolve. 

If you can try with another tv. HDR is normally stable on Sky Q. 

As of yesterday, I can confirm I didn't have any black out in any channels in HD and HDR watching F1 however, there is still static in the picture.
