I was actually referring to the BBC actually putting out an incorrect programme on the iphone - e.g. a couple of weeks ago 'Click' on the iPhone was just some news 24 coverage of an important news story - it completely missed the programme because they moved it! I think they just slice up the broadcast output according to the schedule that their software has cached. - P - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
