Don't put the card back in! You are leaving it out?

Alternatively
Try going to Sky News with card in.
press interactive
wait for it to load
take out card
exit back to TV and don't put card in.

Some Skyboxes don't revert to UK EPG. Most of the missing free channels can be added manually in Other Channels.

If you still can't get it to go back like watty says those channels can be added in Other Channels with no encryption.
