Seems like the Olympics are to blame:

If you’re aware others are having the same issue, have you also tried the suggested solutions? Try a different streaming service, such as Radioplayer.

Hi @Geoff_18 

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

As you should be able to listen to the BBC in the UK, and on your Sonos devices, I recommend you get in touch with our technical support team, who have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your Sonos system and what it reports.
