TV3 EPG Tonight

Mossy Monk

the Sky EPG for TV3 is wrong for this evening

at 9 the EPG changed over to "programmes start at 11pm", which is a pain as i had to manually set Swordfish to record at the last minute. anyone know why the EPG is the way it is?

I had to manually record Swordfish too, according to the teletext it goes on until 11.30, not 11 as the screwed up epg shows.

Digiguide also has the times wrong. AFAIK Coronation Street was on for an hour tonight but the EPG originally only had it slotted in for the usual 30 minutes.

yeah, corrie was cancelled for unknown reasons on Friday night so they smashed together that episode with tonights. So the whole EPG was messed up because of that. Why the EPG writers couldn#'t be arsed to comppletely fix the situation is beyond me.

Hmm. That might explain why RTE 1 was screwed up again tonight as well so. They had a half hour Only Fools and Horses down for half 7, but ran an hour long one instead. Everything was off by a half hour as a result.

Mind you, Digiguide has the times correct for that, so it could just be TV3 not notifying anyone of the change.

ITV (And RTE) were showing the UEFA super cup. TV3 might not have been allowed to show Corrie before UTV. Or something like that. Though why they couldn't have worked that out a few hours in advance is anyone's guess. Perhaps their listings uploader works only a half-day each week and is shared with RTE's equally inept or part-time guy.

The Supercup went into extra time which lasted 30 minutes , blame the scousers !
