I'm 66 in three days time and when it comes to tech I can run rings around all of my younger extended family. Who do they all call when the gremlins strike......yes the family elder with all the gear and they have all done very well with my recycled tech. I dragged them all into the digital age!

Old people indeed! Bloody cheek!

.....and I see he's a friend of yours as well Carl!

My dads 74 and was communicating around the world using voice and data before the web was invented first using radio and then bouncing signals off satellites they, as amateurs put into orbit. Bloody cheek indeed!

Yes lt is a cheek as my parents are in their seventies and know so much.

Can I just add, as if it was not for the old people we would not be here to get the new Tech.

Morning all, is anyone else still having problems with EPG Guide, it always seems to be wrong on Comedy Central channels, its saying that Everybody loves Raymond is on, but its not, Two & a half men is on, i have just connected twice to the connect to Virgin media services now & done a restart Tivo, the EPG is still wrong can someone please check if there box is saying the same thing on them channels please, as i think i might have a faulty box.Thanks.

Yes l totally agree.

I know it used to take 3 days or so for the S1's to react to schedule changes. I don't know what the figure is for the VM Tivo. If CC have changed their schedule at the last minute, this could explain the problem.

I don't know if that is the issue. I'm just offering it as a possible explanation

DigiGuide seems to be right though.
