We don't watch much, and don't currently have a functioning 'recording' facility - but it hardly seems worth it.
But occasionally there's a clash. Nowadays so many programmes are repeated on freeview; but is there an easy way to find out whether it will be, and when?
For instance tomorrow night (I think) I want to see the final episode of "The Choir" (BBC2), but I also desperately want to watch a documentary-thing about an birth mother adoption-reunion search story (on Channel 4 I think).
