Is it me or is there a problem with BBC Prime, they give out programmes and show whats on but its entirely different to what is actually showing, not that I'm a telly addict and I'm not into soaps, but when you sit down to watch a programme which is advertised and you flick over to 105 you end up watching something else, has anyone else wondered about it or just me????

Hi Smithy



No it's not you it's Digiturks listings. BBC Prime have changed their schedule but as yet Digiturk haven't caught on, LOL.



I now use http://www.bbcprime.com/tvschedule/ and select Israel as my country as for some reason Turkey has mysteriously disappeared from their list.



Hope this helps, Sue.

No Problem Sheila,



It's a pain in the neck trying to work out whether we are going mad or just being fed duff info as Digiturk so often dole out the wrong info.



Having said that, why BBC Prime has dropped Turkey as a "Select" Country from their drop down menu, also remains a mystery - unless there is another masterplan coming soon.

Hi Spider I hope no one was hurt, you could always call one of us for a lift that would be no problem, hope they fix your car quicker than that.

Hi Spider

I thought Helen replied on the 44 friends and said you lived near me in Girne, I have posted my mobile number to say I would pick you up, but have you since moved to Lapta or am I getting you mixed up,

the only problem with BBC Prime is that the programmes are rubbish - relentless repeats of the kind of junk that you didn't watch the first time around.



If all you have to look forward to is an evening tucked up on the sofa looking at BBC Prime, then God help you.

Nick I know you think BBC Prime is rubbish and most of the time it is, what with the repeats etc but there are one or two programmes which I like to watch if I'm in and never sure what time they are on
