You really do need to get into "PVR mode"

I've hardly watched any 'Live' TV in the last four years, since my 1st PVR which was in many ways (functionality) better than V+ (or Sky+) - so much so it was virtually impossible to know for sure whether you were watching 'live' or not - which used to bother me at first but within a month i realised that it was totally irrational & broadcast time had nothing to do with my enjoyment - Live programming then just became 'a recording schedule' and has been so ever since
with the advent of Video-On-Demand and Catch-up TV, it has even been discussed how much longer 'TV schedules' will be around
