    Has anyone else had these channels show up on their box today? We've a normal box upstairs and a Sky+ box downstairs and the normal box has the channels on it and the Sky+ box doesn't

    Any ideas what's going on?

    Does the normal box have a working Irish card in it ? If so that's very unusual

    sounds like the standard box has reverted to the default epg.
    it has been the case for a long time now that a box without a card will on reboot have BBC 1 on 101 etc.
    proably whatever card you have in the box has come loose.
    this used to apply to all sky box's but a recent software update stops HD box's that have been paired to an Irish card from losing the Irish epg no matter what.

    I have not read that the same applys to sky plus box's,so why not just enjoy the best of both worlds,while you can!:)

    It does revert on sky + boxes and you can even record these channels temporarily
