Further to the PM i have just replied to I can now say that YES, the channel changed its frequency this week and is now on a weaker frequency that it used to be on, so your reception may be down to your dish not big enough to receive the Eurobird1 S1 beam, where are it used to be on the EB1 Fixed beam, which you were able to receive.

This is just one change happening this month...

Today Sky change their Sky packages around, and had a price freeze for 1 year for exisitng customers. The package change may mean you are getting more channels than what you used to pay for...

In late September, BBC News, BBC Parliament, and BBC Alba will move to Astra 2d, the "big dish" satellite.
This will mean that if you use the 3001 Red button trick to receive BBC Sport on a Sky box, then you may find that this option is no longer available as you may no be able to receive a BBC channel to start the red button application. (non sky and nonfreesat boxes should be OK, as these acccess the streams directly)
