It seems you now need Freeview HD to watch Drama. In a statement issued by the channel, CBS Drama will be changing frequency and will only be available to viewers with a DVB-T2 tuner - i.e. a device that supports Freeview HD, YouView or Freeview Play. The old version of CBS Drama is moving to 792 and will be removed shortly. Source
New channel number and frequency for CBS Drama on Freeview - a516digital

Ann: CBS drama is now transmitted on the COM7 multiplex. You will need to be within range of a COM7 transmitter and use a tuner that supports DVB-T2 (Freeview HD) if you wish to continue viewing this channel on Freeview channel 71. Broadcasters view the COM 7 multiplex as being more cost effective than the original COM muxes which serve slightly more viewers at considerably greater cost.

linda: HD ready TV's are only fitted with DVB-T (SD) tuners, the term "HD ready" simply meaning that the viewing panel (screen) fitted into the TV is capable of displaying HD images and "not" that it can actually receive HD (DVB-T2) transmissions, said images having to be from an external input source such as a Freeview HD box coupled into the TV via an HDMI lead, a small reliable device ideal for this purpose being a Manhattan Plaza HD-T2 Freeview HD receiver at around 43.00 or so from various retailer.

By the way, you should note that said by KMJ,Derby in the posting immediately preceding your own, insomuch that you have to reside in an area where COM7 transmissions can be received, advice on this only possible if your location is known, i.e: a post code or one from somewhere nearby such as a shop / Post office.
