Is it possible that the translation itself has accidentally removed the blocks? Is the configuration of what blocks are available part of the translations?
@microbit-carlos Perhaps. I should have made it clear that the blocks seem to be OK if the language is changed to German after the tutorial is started. I don't know what that means, but it might be significant!
I can reproduce the problem.
Just for clarity, it was a problem with the translation. In German, the LED grid for the showLEDs had a couple of spots where there were extra columns/rows. The translation has been updated now and is fixed on live.
Thanks @srietkerk, I have informed the owner of the support ticket.
