  Well, its the same here, I have no idea.
  
  The same thing happens if you try to do a reminder of a "...programmes start at TIME HERE"
  
  On the day its on, try doing it through the search and scan banner, then it might work, it seems to for the "...programmes start at TIME HERE"

  Thanks for checking that. I guess we'll put it down to an EPG or broadcaster error.

  I tried it as well and got the same message telling me a reminder could not be set. When I tried to set it to record it came up with "Recording selection failed. Please phone 0870......... for assistance"

  Thanks to evryone for confirming what I am seeing - a bug of some sort, can I be bothered to pay Sky for the privilege of being told to re-boot the box etc? Perhaps not...

  Why don't you do a manual recording as you have Sky+, I just tried that on mine and it didnt come up with any error messages.

  I'm just going to watch it live, but I wonder how many programs are affected like this. Makes "Never miss another..." a bit silly, doesn't it.

  I decided to phone Sky. Apparently, the BBC data is at fault, they're contating them to get it sorted (having checked that they couldn't set it either - nice to know we're trusted )

  It seems to have been fixed now,I just checked again out of curiosity and was able to set both a reminder and a recording.

  Yes, they seemed to have fixed it in a couple of hours or so. Nice to know the system works!
