I said that I thought that this wasn't possible.

Does it have an internal battery to cover for power outages, or does it perhaps remember programmes that it was prevented from recording due to no power being present and then looks for a further airing of the programme to successfully complete the requested task?
It will not work whilst there is no power to it and i think you answered your own question and is probably what is happening.
