Of course a few years back they used to have INFAX, the internal BBC database, available to browse which did actually include what went out and in many cases full descriptions of the contents of the programmes, but then it was made unavailable, I think because it included too much information for the public. Fantastic we have what we've got, though. The idea is that this in time will be a complete record of everything ever broadcast and it will link through to the actual programme if they ever manage to work out a way to make their entire archive available. There is a similar database using the TV Times for ITV and Channel 4 listings but it's only available for academic use. -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
