Although the scale of the contract for a broadcaster like the BBC means that even with a service level of 99.99% even a few days without one transmitter like Bilsdale won't trigger any penalties.
That's not to say that Arqiva won't be trying their hardest to get services back on air though
I'm told (last night so it's probably there now) a containerised transmitter set, and mast were on their way to the site. The problem is the mast isn't anywhere near as high as the existing one, so it's not going to be a miracle cure. Oh, and no one is allowed closer than 1000ft from the site, because the damaged mast's integrity is unknown
