Are you sure you haven't got a Series Link or WishList that recorded one of them? Another possibility is one was a Suggestion?

Both were recorded from BBC One HD - Saturday evening and Sunday morning - and I have padding added to all recordings. I neither have a series link plus for Match off the Day nor a wishlist set up. Long ago I turned 'suggestions' off as I find it useless for the kind of programmes I enjoy.

One random theory on this:

The box rebooted itself at some point between the show finishing and the recording finishing? When it came back online there was nothing left to record
That way you would be none the wiser as you've watched what you need to but the box counts it as a failed recording and automatically records the next showing for you.

A bit out there but could be possible. It may be too late to check now but if you have one or more tuners on channel 999 then that signifies a re-boot took place.

Certainly a possibility. Searching for an explanation I did look at my tuners list the following day and three of them were on 999 which struck me as unusual as it's a channel I never visit. However, when I looked in recording hiccups there was nothing untoward there.

There seems to be a fault with the C5 channel and its variants as the programming info only goes up to Friday morning then it says "to be announced" as l am trying to record a series that starts on Friday but l can't.

Done the usual in rebooting the box properly?

It's just this Friday. I looked and Saturday onto the next Friday is there on both 105 and 154.

Same here Den, Manchester area 20. Channel 5/+ on Friday does seem to be the only day involved though.

Presumably will be ok later in the week - not as though you are going anywhere

No l won't be going anywhere for the forseeable future Raider as l saw the series advertised but could not set a series record but the wise sages of CF plotted the road ahead for dozey me.

C5 for Friday was missing on all platforms and was only released today. It is now appearing fine here on my V6 after a callback.
