I've been at this all day! Nothing works! The only UK app i have is the BBC sport app, youtuve is still available but BBc iplayer, amazon instant video among others are now missing. I have reset the router and TV to their factory setting and it's still no good. It's driving me crazy!
Also, when i reset my TV i couldn't seem to tune it to freeview which is also very strange but i assume these things to be unrelated.

HI all
I have requested this be addressed with urgency !!! Can I please ask everyone to respond back with the model of TV or device that is having the issues - might narrow it down for them. I wouldnt bother with resetting TV etc, not yet anyhow - just a waste of time.
Device = TV
Model = KDL-42W807A
Year = 2013
Cheers all.

Thanks for chasing this! Same problem here - my TV is Bravia KDL-42W805A, the BBC and ITV player apps have completely disappeared although all the usual advertising dross is there as always. I haven't tried to use iPlayer on the TV for a couple of weeks, but it was fine on all earlier occasions.
I also tried pointing the TV's web browser to BBC iPlayer, and although I could search through programmes, as soon as I tried to stream anything, it just refused to do it.
The Internet setup is fully functional. Other devices are fine with iPlayer. My IP address is static, UK-based, unchanged for years. FTTC broadband consistently providing 60Mbps down, 14Mbps up - so no bandwidth issues.
Some DRM shenanigans again. Thanks for nothing, Sony.

Hi
Device - TV x2
Model - Kdl-46w905a
Model - Kdl-24w605a
Both purchased this year
Both Tv's still had iplayer listed in the history (at least until I factory reseted 1 of them) and it could still be accessed from there.
Thanks for chasing this
Cheers
