The transponder carries seperate services for the channels on PSB1 and PSB3 including national variants of BBC1 (see below) and the transmitter selects the correct combination to transmit.
There's no sign of that new service on Lyngsat despite it being updated yesterday. Although it says that transponder has BBC One Yorkshire SD on it, which isn't the case, it's North East

Not quite Nightlight, but region-less as Nightlight is.
Of course in normal times having the HD slate on the backup wouldn't be appropriate either - pointing HD viewers to tune to 1 for their regional news when if the satellite back up is in use it won't be on 1 either!
Not that that will be an option in 5 weeks time anyway
