It seems to happen every couple of months for about a week at a time, if you have a good television it will tell you there are some new services available and that you need to re-tune, otherwise just re-tune every so often till they come back.
I have had the same problem twice now.

It's a common problem on Freeview. Out of the six MUXs, four use 16QAM modulation and two use 64QAM.
64QAM is less robust, so any weakening of signal, noise, interference etc will affect the two 64QAM MUXs first.
And those two MUXs are the ones that carry the ITV & Five channels.
Please don't ask me to explain what QAM means [;-\
