Oh I complained to the BBC on that one - Watch a programme on BBC2 until
the end turn over just as the credits roll and find the programme on BBC1
has already started:
"We do allow programme-makers some flexibility in running time, although
all programmes are expected to run about one minute less than their slot
time so that we can accommodate promotional trails and continuity
announcements. If a programme is over-running slightly, it may be
necessary to begin it a little early."
