    SS-GB get around...

    Locate in EPG & Series link.

    BBC1 Sunday 19th February 9pm

    It will also be available on BBC iPlayer.

    When search fails on any platform, I just Google it, and transfer details across...

    It is possible...

    The search function will always be hit and miss and virtually impossible for searching with 'new' or 'the' as it will bring back almost everything.

    It doesn't make sense to search on 'a' or 'ae', the minimum search string is 3 characters for very sensible reasons

    To find SS-GB search using
    'gb '
    that's gb followed by the space, it'll bring back two results, in my case ss-gb and 5 live rugby, immediately.

    There are functions that allow searching with punctuation that Humax may want to incorporate. Searching with such small titles though will always be problematic.

    More important is the lack of information in the returned search, there's really no excuse for not displaying date and time of the programme.

    New search being tested returns SS-GB as first result in broadcast option with date time of programme.

    Cheers Barry for the confirmation it'll still work with the new search, also glad to see the inclusion of time/date coming soon.
