OK, fair enough....
Seems a bit harsh that the padding is 'compulsory' rather than 'used if tuner available', IYSWIM.
So were there not alternative showings available for any of those three programmes?
(BTW, I'm not disputing your claims, I'm justing getting a feel for how the TiVo works in practice)

It might cost an extra £3 a month but I bet there are things it suggests for us that we would never have known were even on! Excellent stuff and worth £3 a month!

That is, indeed, what TiVo is all about.
This is what Joe Public needs to get their head round to understand the 'real-world' advantage of TiVo.
