There are no spare channels on freeview for the live feed any more and there won't be after switch over either. The greedy government is selling off a lot of the old UHF television band for a quick pound.

I had a similar problem with my sky box and all I had to do was turn it off and on again and it worked fine again. You could try that.

They could have replaced Film4+1 with a live feed. Film4+1 was only meant to be on Freeview temporarily anyway...

it says on virgin you cant get it for free, but you can watch it for a one off fee of £7, i think that means if you pay £7, you can watch live all summer, thats a good deal!
