Selected Mastermind to watch that I recorded earlier, it played a very old Michael Barrymore's Strike it Lucky. The listing said Mastermind at the correct time. No sound very strange. Checked other recordings, they were wrong. Only ones that were ok eerie ones I have on series record. I remember tv going funny this morning saying this channel is scrambled and changed what I was watching. I set recorder this morning too.
I can't find any mention of Strike it Lucky in any listings. Very strange, any ides folks?

Perhaps my Montmorency (TV Poltergeist) is visiting you.
Strike It Lucky was on Challenge TV at 8pm
very odd - Mastermind was on at its expected time....

Hi Daisy we have one of those that works in the house, never touched tv before though.

Challenge wasn't listed in my tv mag. Weird.
Same thing has happened to me, Caran...Lord knows why. My poltergeist is called Mr Trevelynn.
Just a thought, have you tried rebooting your digi box.

Mines called Fred!!
Gness do you mean your recordings were ruined?

Hadn't Tony but I think I will.
Recorded the wrong programmes, Caran.....and some of them were really old programmes that I couldn't find listed.

Gave up trying to fathom it in the end.
I think you've hit a hotspot
Evening Caran. Last 3 weeks I recorded programmes on one channel and TV was changed to another for recording. BBC1 South to BBC1 Southeast. 5 to 5*. Same programmes but not always the same time. 5* plays the following day's episode. Played havoc with my carefully thought out recording schedule. Spent ages every morning changing recordings. At last, yesterday, got what I had programmed.
Give it a go, Caran, it may just fix yours, Daisy's and gness's problem.

It's very annoying, the first thing I do with my morning cuppa is sort the tv out for the evening, like you all carefully thought out using live and plus ones to get what we want.
A poltergeist with multiple personalities?
Have no idea how to re-boot a digibox. Is it like shoeing a horse?
Just unplug it, Daisy, leave it for a few minutes and plug it back in, then scan for new channels.

Daisy that made me laugh.
I think the term is retune the channels, I hope!
Bit Montmorency seems to have gone AWOL. Do I still need to shop for footwear?
A pair of wellies will be fine, Daisy.
Oh goodie! With flowers on? Or should I be sensible and buy a pair of Hunter's? Then I could get them to guide me through the forest. But I wouldn't let them shoot anything.
