If it's technically/machine checked I accept things go wrong and glad it's fixed..

But if it's all done by some over the top PC human IMO it is pathetic.

It was a bit of code that should only be applied to the Adult channels EPG, but for some reason it developed a fault and it applied it to all channels. It was not a human deciding to add it to the regular EPG.

It is a good job that they did not swap them around? With some of the content on the channels that you monitor
