PRESWATCH: continuing fallout from Saturday's Red Bee incident: - E4+1 seems to be off air on Freeview (thanks @theidentgallery for flagging). - Sound on some programme content on some C4 channels seems distorted.

@FreeviewTV @Paliakythro_ann @Film4 Freeview isn’t fit for purpose and never has been.

@a516digital But why is the c4hd sound so hollow? It’s as if the DD mix is going to the rear speakers only… c4 on freeview seems ok, just the HD sound feed. Plus any washed out picture problems?

@4Viewers Hi has the technical issue that forced Channel4 off-air yesterday affected audio description? Just watching #FoxysFearless48Hours and there is no audio description despite it being listed as having AD. I double checked and AD is definitely enabled - watching on Freeview

@a516digital @RedBeeMedia The problems caused by the fire system activation at Red Bee continue. Freeview Northeast England. Channel 4, occasional issues with ads and little continuity. E4, EPG wrong. Channel 5, Channel 5HD, 5Star, 5+1, 5Select, still running on backup.

@StevenNT Strictly speaking, it's not C4's mess, it's Red Bee's issue! It appears it was on Freeview only. The assembling of the regionalised D3&4 multiplex is incredibly complex and unique. Channel 4 providing regional advertising does give ITV some competition.

@Paliakythro_ann @FreeviewAdvice E4+1 is off-air with just a black screen right now as I type this (Winter Hill region); 4Music is showing The Box music channel which isn't available on Freeview. That's how bad the problems still are.

After that flurry of activity, it seems reasonable to assume that Red Bee / Channel 4 still struggling with Freeview distribution in the regions. C4+1 in Midlands (not available on satellite) now repeating the errors of the past hour.
