When is Googles next deep crawl, as I guess that is what I'm waiting for? What's happening here? I'm worried as I've lost vital page positions and losing hits.
I am being deep crawled right now, but that does not really prove anything about when _you_ can expect to be.

URL descriptions? Do you mean these tags:
<meta name="description" content=".....">
AFAIK Google do not care much about them. I cannot imagine that changes here are responsible for your problems. Not even if you have filled your descriptions with spam, but you haven't, have you?

Sounds like results being shown from different Google datacenters with two different generations of these pages.
> What's happening here?
Do you have any logfiles? Did you have trouble with your server last time that Google tried to deep crawl your website? Has your website been visited by any googlebot lately?
