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.
