Hello,
When I record on BBC2 it simultaneously records another BBC2 station. I set the box to record Strictly Come Dancing-It takes two on BBC2 Look East, but it also records BBC Northern Ireland at the same time! This has happened when recording other programmes on BBC2. I can stop the duplicate recording, and delete it from the schedule, but it restores it the next time the programme is on.
All other recordings are OK.
Does anyone else have this phenomena?

It's either a screw up by the BBC with the crid codes or the BBC Northern Ireland recording is a different episode. You can delete the northern Ireland channel from your epg.

Can you clarify your post -

Looking into the series CRID's which look to be oK.

A epg search for todays It Takes Two finds content on

102 (HD) 108 (SD) 969 (HD) 970 (HD) and 971 (HD).

If I set todays It Takes two from 106 and choose the one off HD option I only get one 1 scheduled recording which is what the codes indicate is the correct outcome.

The situation is more complex id you choose SD due to BBC 2 having SD options for Scotland NOI and Wales.

Can you confirm same outcome by trying the above ?
