We are having issues with some stations - ITV but not BBC. Do you know why this should be?

There could be a multitude of reasons. It's possible you could receive signals from one of 4 transmitters, one of which has Planned Engineering. We need a full postcode to look at predicted reception in your locale.
Which way is your aerial pointing and are the rods vertical or horizontal? Does the aerial look intact and is it pointing the way you thought it should be - compare to close neighbours.
Check your connections, coax plugs, flyleads etc for corrosion or intermittent/broken connections.
