Top Gear 8:00PM
So many complained they forgot to watch it last week.
Sky user.
Select Top Gear for the reminder.
Then go into the planner and set the red button to automatically turn it on and the green button to repeat it till the end of the series.
Also set the timer on your mobile for 7:55Pm and your can be sat down in front of the TV with a cold one without having to get up and miss some of the program, for those who are married then do your usual thing and ckick your fingers and the cold one should arrive with in 30 seconds. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D NOT :-X

if it's not freesat compatible, or freeview, what does it record from? :-?

Just looked
Middle East market, so unless you want to record their programmes
Not DVB-T so forget Freeview
Freesat uses a weird EPG to handle ITV HD, only PVR is the Humax HDR
