Can my dish still be useful if the satellite has been decommissioned?

The house we're renting in Spain has a satellite dish. We've been enjoying UK channels like BBC and ITV, but service was interrupted last week. We asked the friendly local satellite guy, and he said that Intelsat 907 has been decommissioned...

which means no more channels, throw out the dish and start from scratch. We don't really have any experience with satellite but our landlady told us she installed it once, years ago, and didn't pay any kind of monthly subscription. Couldn't the dish be reconfigured to tune in to some other service? The internet says that Intelsat 907 has been replaced by Intelsat 901. The satellite set-top box says Red and Opticum on it, and there's an 80 cm (31 inch) dish on the roof. Thanks.
