EPG on a Toppy   
Just recently I've been finding holes in some - but not all - of the progs
listed in the EPG. I could perhaps understand it if it was all just the
one mux - but today only CH5 was affected. All it was showing was 'now and
next' then jumped to next Sunday. Is this a local to me problem or 'them'?

It's normally 'them'. The EPG and SI data on Muxes 2 and A does have a habit 
of going AWOL, normally on a transmitter by transmitter basis. Looks like it 
could be Crystal Palace's turn at the moment. I'm told the kit used is rather 
flaky, and often requires reboots. Being replaced soon AIUI, when DSO roll-out 
starts proper later this year.

I've had no EPG problems from CP. Give me a specific and I'll have a look 
now.

I've noticed the odd gap but can't be specific. I usually don't look
at the EPG that much, I've got TAPs to do that for me.
