I have no Freeview reception at all - it went off about 8.30 this evening, and has not reurned. I have tried retuning, but no channels ere found. The TV is working - DVDs etc work, and the various menus come up. Work was carried out on the Lydgate Transmitter this afternoon, but the reception was fine early evening.

Kay: Although nothing is indicated on the TX fault reporting site it cannot be taken for granted that no faults exist, as there is always a time lag in a fault being reported.
You should never carry out a retune on any device unless a notice to this effect has appeared on the screen as all you achieve is to lose everything already stored, this then requiring you to carry out constant rescans to recover the channels, whereas if nothing had been touched they would have reappeared on their own accord.
