=== tv guide.jpg

The first two are cosmetic

1) item circled on left - when an error in the EPG data reports two overlapping programs, the text can overlap too (when the program titles are long enough and the program times are short enough). Highlighting either program gives its text priority.

Suggestion: give the later program starting time priority - ie - if a new program is starting, assume the old one is finishing.

2) item circled on right - program name too long for allocated box. Screenshot is from the previous version and I've just noticed this has been fixed in the new version (three lines of text now display correctly), but for programs where the name still doesn't fit on 3 lines (see program in bottom right), name just ends abruptly. Maybe it's just Scotland, but there seem to be lots of 5 minute programs with long names here.

Suggestion: use '...' at the end of the last bit of text that fits in the box

=== tv guide accents.jpg

EPG programs containing gaelic letters (with accents) don't display correctly - see comparision with listing on BBC site. This is using over the air EPG. Not sure if EPG overair source or GBPVR causes this.

=== tv guide descender.jpg

Minor cosmetic - descenders cut off in third line of text - look at "g" in "tonight" of highlighted program

=== tv guide pixel widths.jpg

Very, very, very minor cosmetic - the last row of the guide touches the white line at the bottom. All other rows miss it by 1 pixel!

=== tv guide spillage.jpg

Very minor cosmetic - the "m" of the highlighted (very narrow) program spills into the next program box
