BBC has been quite clever here I think - imagine the uproar if (heaven
forbid) we were to have BBC FIVE and BBC SIX transmitting only
parttime.  But call them "interactive channel 301/302" and no-one
complains.

Worth noting that although the Freeview EPG is updated with the
301/302 schedules (and 81 is not), the 4TV transmitted EPG which some
PVRs (Thomson DHD4000 for example) use has no data in the epg for
these schedules, which means that recording them is still a manual
process for me at least.
