When are Virgin going to update this? Nice shiny new boxes same old outdated Programme Guide. Sat down tonight to watch Guy Martin only to be presented with 19 Kids and Counting. What's going on I thought checked the guide 9PM Ch4 Guy Martin. CH4's website doesn't mention the listed programme either. A bit of searching online revealed that the cycling challenge was called off on Dec.7th after Guy suffered an injury.
Clearly this meant that the advertised programme couldn't be made so why was it still listed on VM 4 weeks later? Not only that but as the replacement programme was on air and afterwards GM was still on the schedule for +1 tonight and 4Seven tomorrow night.
We know it's not dynamic updating but 4 weeks to change a listing surely 4 weeks is time enough to update?

Which is exactly what DigiGuide has in that slot too. So not just a Tivo issue then What I mean is, whoever should have told TMS didn't tell DG either.

FREEVIEW guide had correct programme data, I checked listings for Four7 on Friday and 19 Kids was listed for 9PM.

It would, because with that and Satellite, each broadcaster is responsible for their own listings. This is not the case with Tivo or Digiguide.

Yes... and? Were they right? I suspect not as they will also not get their data direct from the broadcaster.
