Question Top Gear Last Night

Did anyone record Top Gear last night? The reason I ask is that my recording was very strange - it was exactly an hour long, despite the fact that I have it set to record 3 minutes before a program and 5 minutes after. I would have expected something in the region of 67 minutes instead.

Low and behold, when I come to watch it I've missed the first couple of minutes.

Did anyone else have the same problem?

Re: Top Gear Last Night

I'm hoping it will make it to VOD, and that VOD actually works, so I can watch it. I wonder if I am being uncharacteristically optimistic.

Re: Top Gear Last Night

OK, this one is purely for discussion of the TV drive recording issues. Any discussion of the programme itself goes in the entertainment thread.
