Accessing programmes more than a week old?

You used to be able to scroll back/select a date more than one week ago on the tv guide page. Ironically they stopped this just as they introduced the 30 day catch up window which is quite bizarre and I wonder if its intentional or a bug. However, I've found if you go into the url and manually
