Watching the last leg last night, they were talking about if they would be able to stay on air.

Re: Various channels went off air tonight on multiple platforms
Sky Sport was nothing to do with the fire alarm at Red Bee - most likely a local issue for you which needs a call to VM.

Re: Various channels went off air tonight on multiple platforms
Subtitles still seem to be missing on the Channel 4 group of channels.

And probably will continue to be missing while C4 channels are being played out from an unnamed disaster recover facility which, apparently, hasn't been updated for some time. DR facilities aren't really supposed to be used for this long. Probably not updated because of the dual playout facilities, specified in their renewed contract with Red Bee Media. Unfortunately, not ready in time for this incident.

Re: Various channels went off air tonight on multiple platforms
Sports channels pixelating are 502 and 503. Everything else is fine. Any ideas anyone?

Definite signal fault. Those two channels are on a very low frequency in Birmingham. Make sure all the cable connectors are tight. If that doesn't resolve, you'll need a technician visit.

Re: Various channels went off air tonight on multiple platforms
From what I've heard elsewhere, it's normal for 2 music channels to playout from a single server. So maybe Kerrang! won't be far behind.

Re: Various channels went off air tonight on multiple platforms
Well, it took much longer than expected but Kerrang! is finally back with its own service, no longer a simulcast of The Box

Audio description and a normal subtitle service have also been restored on Channel Four, their accessibility & playout facilities have had to be rebuilt following the incident at Red Bee. https://rxtvinfo.com/2021/c4-accessi...ervices-return
