Maria missed her cue

I set Sky+ to record tonight's second (and final) Maria programme on
BBC1 but it seems that the EPG got messed up and I missed the first 10
minutes or so (it was originally scheduled for 9.15pm, then I noticed
that it had got rescheduled for 9.25pm accordng to the EPG and the
recording eventually started at 9.25pm - but the programme had already
begun, presumably at 9.15pm as originally scheduled).

Damned nuisance as this programme has been my main licence fee
justification for the past few weeks. Anyone know if/when/where it will
be repeated?

I think it was slightly delayed, Stan, but not by 15 minutes. Seemed
to be around 5 mins or so.

ISTR it started at 21:21hrs, so you only missed four minutes, all of which
was only a recap of what happened in the earlier show.

Something odd went on with the EPG, certainly as seen via DTT Freeview. My
Topfield PVR is able to view what happened two events into the past. The
Lottery show was shown as 19:45 to 20:30, and Vicar of Dibley as 20:35 to
20:25. Very odd to have a 5 minute gap in any EPG data. Did anything happen
earlier in the evening to delay Dibley ?

The EPG on Freeview did originally have the start time set as 21:15, but I
noticed at 21:00hrs the EPG had changed to 21:25. Fortunately the Toppy
still fired off at 21:15.
