It is not often I ask questions but I watch freeview from Winter Hil and every night Fiver is off by 11.00pm and a card is displayed saying see you at 6 pm yet the EPG shows programmes still being transmitted, I saw this a few weeks ago but just thought it was a glitch.

Is this some cunning plan to limit the viewing figures or what?

Fiver is only transmitted on Freeview until 11:00pm, I suppose so that another channel (probably a slapper channel) can use the space on the mux.

I too have noticed the continuation of the EPG, it's probably down to laziness using the satellite info unaltered.

Radio Times correctly says that it only transmits untill 11:00.
