It's very sad some services decline over time. Programmes always showed the first airing date on the information before the upgrade, now they show the year and no more. That means it's easy to waste 15 minutes watching a programme you've seen already as it was shown earlier in the same year. Virgin, please get your **** together.

Guess you have a 360? All that extra epg infornation is still there on V6/tivo. It'll be part of the 'upgrade'.

It's random, some give the year, others have no information and others have an episodes link. Nothing like simply using the original broadcast date, time is money and adding it all up It's wasted a lot of my time.

Yes, overall the new box is a great improvement (besides wiping all my old saved programmes I hadn't watched) but details matter.

It isn’t. It’s got rather spotty and inconsistent over the last year on V6. There’s a very noticeable number of shows without the information, or with a reduced amount.

Probably whoever was employed to do it has been "retired".
