Having same problem, quite a few posts about it. TALKTALK, say it’s not an issue their end. Not so sure. It’s a complete pain. Constant resetting & re tuning.

Try the following :

Switching over from IP fallback (iPlayer) to DVB aerial source for BBC channels.

1) Navigate to ITV1 by pressing “3” on the remote control.

2) Press the “CH-” key on the remote to load BBC TWO

3) An info bar will appear towards the bottom, immediately press the “Right” arrow key
on the remote to navigate to the “Settings” option.

4) Immediately press the “OK” button on the remote control. This will show a new box
titled “Channel Source” for BBC TWO

Note that you will need to perform steps 3 and 4 (pressing “right” & “OK”) in quick
succession - i.e. within about 2 seconds. If you aren’t quick enough, simply press “CH+” to
load ITV1 again and repeat from step 2.

5) Use the “Left” or “Right” arrow keys to switch to “BBC TWO HD” which is the aerial
version of the channel. The source labelled just BBC TWO is the iPlayer version.

6) All other BBC channels should now play through your aerial, i.e. the iPlayer loading
screen should no longer appear. You can check this by navigating to either BBC ONE
(channel #1) or BBC THREE (channel #23).
