My parents have just moved into a block where they had to join Telewest in order to receive a television signal - there's no external aerial. None of us can fathom out how to video programmes from the Telewest digital service - the literature says its possible only to video the channel you're watching - is this true? And can a VCR be programmed to timer-record a show while my parents are out? We've had the engineers out and called the Telewest helpline dozens of times, but no-one seems able to help without spouting oodles of techno mumbo jumbo which is impossible to follow.
