Humax 9300T recording stopping too soon.

First time here so hope you can help. I regularly record law and Order Uk on Itv 3. The problem is for the last three episodes the last few minutes are missing. As you might know that's when the verdict comes in. It is infuriating! I'm no techie and am wondering if there is anything I can reset or do to solve the problem. I have had the Humax a few years. Is this just old age??

I doubt this is old age (either the Humax's or yours).
This sounds like a problem that occurs on some of the minor channels. The actual time that something is broadcast seems to slip. Just a stupid question first. You arn't recording off ITV3+1 by mistake? That will cut off at midnight anyway.
The only suggestion I can come up with, not knowing how you set the recording in the first place, is to manually reset the time of the recording.
If you are only having problems with this programme you could try this.
I'm sure there will be many critics to what I suggest but what I would do is...
(You will probably have to cancel the existing settings first)
Go to the guide (press guide on the remote) followed by find (blue button). Enter "Order" and Find. Scroll down to the first Law & Order Uk on ITV 3 and select. Answer OK to the "Do you want to reserve" question, BUT "One Programme" to the Series Link question. Press back twice (you should be at the Guide screen) Press yellow (schedule) and find the Law & Order you just set - click OK. Change the End time to 23:05 or later (right arrow next to OK will do this). You may want to change the start time to earlier also( left arrow) ? Change Repeat to Weekday (right arrow) and save.

Not knowing how you set the recording in the first place or what else you have set to record there is another distinct possibility that might be the cause.

If you have anything set to start recording at the same time that L&OUK is scheduled to finish then try setting the 2nd recording to one of its repeats (if there is one). If there is not a suitable repeat then EEPhil's suggestion will also work in this circumstance.

What EEPhil said : manually add five minutes to the end time as a weekly (or whatever) schedule instead of the automatic series record.
