    I tried to search for M*A*S*H. It said it found 156 but wouldn't display any.

    Will someone confirm it's not just me.

    Thanks

    News is a search is likely a search on on genre not a programme name.

    What does *News* return

    *BBC*NEWS* matches
    BBC News
    BBC News at 9
    BBC News at Five
    BBC News at One
    ...

    so * is a wildcard. so is + and ?. I tried putting it in quotes but that didn't help.

    Using any of them find M*A*S*H in search results and it says there are 50 Results. Clicking on M*A*S*H in search results and it says 'There are currently no results for "M*A*S*H" On TV'

    'MASH' doesn't find it

    I have found that sometimes programmes on the more 'minor' channels does not return results. Searching the 'major' channels always returns results.
