Due to the Eurovision song contest on Saturday night MOTD series link has not updated. It is however being shown on BBC2, should the HDR not have picked this up or is it the BBC's fault?

I don't have MOTD on a Series Link so can't check and, from memory, a Timer in the past doesn't retain the Series CRID when you press Info.

If you happened to check, and remember, the Series CRID from last week, you can compare it to the Series CRID on Saturday's prog.

Ideally, BBC should have kept the same one, and then the HDR should have picked it up. But likely (I can't be sure), they have put a different one, or none at all if it's a one-off.

AFAIK, series links don't change channel.

Saturday's MOTD is picked up by MOTD2's series link (and, similarly, when MOTD2 finds itself on BBC1, it's picked up by the MOTD series link).

Ah, I didn't know that there was already a different MOTD Series on BBC2 (I don't watch them).

So, it will be different, and not pick it up.

No, its not a different MOTD series on BBC2. Its just the BBC1 series on BBC2 for one week because of the Eurovision Pong contest. Unfortunately I have not set my PVR for this so cannot check this. In the past, the series link has been picked up by the different channel.

OK, in that case, my first post stands.

Thanks for clarifying.
