Sugoll the Deformed

One episode of Smallville: recorded an hour of black screen, thanks to the magic software of Virgin,.
One episode of Studio 60: recorded the wrong channel, thanks to the limitations of same.
Pilots of Californication and 30 Rock: recorded the wrong channel, thanks to the ineptitude of, well, me.

Two episodes of Robin Hood: recorded without problem.

I don't know what's going on in the flat upstairs, but I'm guessing that there's a carpet or wooden floor or something being fitted; there is much clomping going on, mostly around the edges of the room.

I hope it stops soon...
