This going to sound really weird ( well nothing changed there).

We NEVER ( if we can help it)watch channels with commercials live. However
We do watch BBC. live. We find it helpful to have reminders as we can be watching a recording & have been known to have more being recorded.

Then we lose track of time or totally forget that one off show (normally that`s what it is) is on. Hence reminders. As was also said they are great if you want to get live sport ( even then I have been known to start to record & jump in half time injuries etc)

I really did not think that such a "simple " thing would cause so much agro. Now apps on the Tivo, are a different story - why o why did anyone think they were a good idea ( paint & dry comes to mind ) I am ducking
