    I use my FTV card to enter programmes into the personal planner as it has the complete EPG. The other night I noticed that on Sky One the British version has Series Links set up but the Irish one does not. I noticed this on Enterprise and South Park.

    Wonder why?

    Another case of second class citizenship.

    Yes it was, I replied too but though better of being cynical.

    Don't see how pointing out that Series Links are missing from the Irish version of Sky One is wanting something for nothing.

    I can't even begin to speculate as to why this is. It surely is not the result of some decision, I can only guess it is an oversight.

    Still, would you not become a bit swamped with reminders? - I don't watch enterprise, but if I could choose series link for say the simpsons, would this not mean i would get up to five or six reminders every day.

    BTW I have never seen a show with a series link on any channel.

    Nor have I. Do they exist at all on the Irish EPG ?

    Eastenders will give you the option of a Series Link. some programmes on Nickelodeon will give you the option too

    I have noticed that the series links on Itv dont work properly either. I set up a link for The Bill last week and it didnt work properly.

    Sky have series links available on Sky Sports for Super Sunday and Scottish Football so I dont see why they cant have it on Sky1.

    BBC have series links for Eastenders, Question of Sport and They Think Its All Over.
