05:43 or earlier, C50 lives!
I think it said somewhere that it should all be over by 06:00, though a neighbour said he had heard on some form of news outlet to expect disruptions up to 'lunchtime'

Update. Getting BBC Channels on Sony now, but on Humax the signal is up and down. Can not manage to get channel 60, (sky news or hd channels on Sony HDTv. Nor non hd channels on the Humax. Very disppointed. Tv can pick up HD as l lived in the Ridge Hill area, when switchover happened there.

Jon-G: The list of relays and times is at Digital UK - Relay transmitter switching times . Some will be off-air until 3pm.
Since relays simply retransmit what they receive off-air from the parent station (which for some relays is another relay), you can't put up a caption specifically for the viewers of that relay. Also, most people don't know which relay they're using! (They usually don't even know which main transmitter provides the service.) Most relays only serve small pockets that aren't covered by a larger transmitter. It's very hard to target communications specifically to viewers who will have a long outage, so you just get generic messages of 'could be off 'til lunchtime'.
