UK TV Guide

This Widget displays three guide listings for up to twenty stations at once, received from XML data courtesy of http://bleb.org/tv/. This XML data source has data for about 90 of the most popular TV channels in the UK so it's great for people with freeview, cable or sky.

April 01, 2008 · version 2.0Very good, Missing channel 'Dave'
Dunhill'Dave' channel is missing and also it has an issue with refresh. When refresh works it can be very slow to do so. Other than that it;s my fave widget on my desktop! Well done! (I look forward to the addition of 'Dave')

I haven't updated this in ages I will try and sort out an update to add new channels like dave although I am time limited. Also the mention of a slow refresh this actually re downloads all the xml files for all the channels you currently have on display so it can take a while to download and process.

May 31, 2009 · version 2.0FINALLY!
AlternativeAlterEgoLove this widget!! There used to be only one uk tv programme guide and that gave way. Been using tvguide.co.uk but this is ace! It would get 5 stars if it had Dave as a channel... hopefully that'll happen in future =))

August 23, 2009 · version 2.0Very Useful
MartinUnlike the tvguide.co.uk widget, this actually works! I'd have given it 5 stars had it got Yesterday (formerly UKTV History), Virgin 1 and Dave. The only other niggle is that all the regional programmes seem to be set for the Midlands. That aside full marks for useability, I will keep an eye out for the updated version.
