Don't worry you're not the only one. I'm getting WM in the East Midlands
area too.

It didn't. The answer is in the second sentence:

"Initially, this postcode is "mapped" to the existing regions that ITV
broadcast on Satellite"

As Carlton East Midlands is not available on DSAT, your postcode will have
been mapped to the West Midlands service, hence the reason you are also
getting the West Midlands version of BBC1. It will be corrected at some
point though.

Funny old world ! Peter and thats progress they say

Indeed it is progress. You now have DSAT access to your regional BBC1 by
entering three digits, which you didn't have yesterday.
