The Radio Times listed this programme for 17:45 today, 9th November on BBC1 as does the BBC's Remembrance website. The RT even has an item on the daily 'highlights' page on the L-hand page.
This was the one progamme over this period that my wife didn't want to miss, so I set up the PVR to record it. I thought it odd that it didn't appear in the online TV guide on the PVR, but set it up manually anyway at the times stated
I get home tonight to find it wasn't shown?
Then - I find buried on the BBC website that it was shown at 13:55 in England and 3 different times in Scotland?
Thinking the much-vaunted iPlayer would help, I find it's not available!!
Aaaaaargggh!!!!
Thank you - that feels better I've got it out into the open....
Did anyone catch it?

iPlayer is showing it as 'coming soon' now, so my blood pressure is going down.....!
The RT website says the time was changed to 15:55. What's the use of showing something 2 hours earlier than expected? - bound to get a good audience... not!

I look forward to seeing yet another BBC executive head rolling down the road.

They got confused with the surname and lost their bottle.

I saw it and thought it very good. If memory serves, Vera's brother was under some sort of cloud at the time he was killed (allegations of homosexual conduct?) and this was not touched upon.

There appear to be two threads running on this programme so I'll just repeat what I said on the other thread ...
For those that missed it due to confusion surrounding when it was being transmitted, the BBC website states it will be repeated on 17 Nov 2008 at 01:20 on BBC One. Set your Sky+!
