Unfortunately to get 100% accuracy, the programmes should all be
matched by hand, possibly by the schedulers.  Unfortunately this
isn't currently done and repeat programmes are found using a simple
algorithm, which occasionally fails as it has in this case. The
opposite can occasionally happen when two programmes are matched as
repeats, when they're not - usually caused by generic saynopses.

There is also a know issue with films that traverse the news, with
the two halves not being paired correctly.

This is a test environment - it s believed that far more accurate
matching will be done should a full broadcast TV-Anytime service be set up.
