A fire at the base of the Bilsdale TV and radio transmitter, on moors 15 miles east of Northallerton, means no Freeview and FM radio signals for around 1 million for some time. Operator Arqiva plans to bring in temporary equipment but could not say when services would be restored.
North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said there were "concerns about the structural integrity of the mast" and a 300m (984ft) exclusion zone is in place around it. However, you might want to think about staying a little further away - the mast is actually 315m (1,032ft).
