What a mess the sound was when pictures finally came back, oh my god that would probably blow your tv speakers if you had the sound up and didn’t realise!

ITV1 having a few issues leading into The Chase this afternoon - no voiceover on the credits to today’s Tipping Point and a generic “Good afternoon, you’re watching ITV1” announcement leading into The Chase.

That's TV 60's just had a breakdown just now during a Johnny Nash song, currently playing the 10 second sting on loop.

Bet they'll see clearly now the rain has gone and can see all obstacles in their way (to get the channel sorted).

*ahem*

I'll get my coat.

Magic’s faults can be found often in the programme banner in the top right. Here’s one from Saturday 15 April this year.

Yeah and another frequent one is the EPG differs from what is actually being shown

Back in the day when we have Viva and TMF you'd have exactly the same "problem", it isn't anything new with the music channels.
Pretty sure MTV used to do something like "non stop video hits" scheduled at some time when they hadn't even finished the previous "programme" Top 20 Chart Countdown or whatever. The EPG would tick over and you'd still have two or three songs to go.

But that of course was when MTV was more free flowing with its schedule, before it started airing the likes of Cribs, which forces it into a regular schedule.
