Why do some TV series not have a "series link" on Sky+?

[SurreyGuy]

Does anyone know why not every series has a "series link" on Sky+?

One current example is "Where Are They Now" on Sky Sports 1 on a Sunday morning. It's on every week, but I have to manaually programme it into my box every time.

It's also annoying when you have set your box to record a programme and said programme starts late, but the box does not compensate for that and so the end of the programme doesn't get recorded!

i find it annoying as well as i like that programme you can add time on a programme by going to sky+ set-up in services

ive also found that sometimes if you try it once and it doesnt work try it again later and more often than not it will set

Thanks - i know what you both mean.

gina32 - I was actually referring to programmes where the "series link" (green dot) simply isn't there.
