Sky Arts disappeared from free to air (2025)

I've been watching Sky Arts free to air over standard aerial but it disappeared yesterday (5th March 2025) - I've rescanned channels both yesterday and today but it has disappeared (looks like Sky News and Sky Mix have also gone).

 

Any ideas?

Thanks

The Sky channels are definitely still available on Freeview. It's likely you have lost signal on the multiplex that carries them. Are you also missing channels including E4 Extra, Quest Red, u&Dave, Food Network? They are on the same multiplex.

It might be worth continuing to retune every day or so because what you might find with Freeview is that weather and other conditions really affects groups of channels. It would make sense that Sky channels are on the same mux so if you're having trouble connecting to that it would explain why all of the Sky freeview channels have knocked off.

Great - yes, I can now see that a number of different channels disappeared at the same time - including those you named.

I've been doing a daily retune and they are now all back.

Thanks for the solution
