Out of date episode details

LorryLol — Thu, 12 Feb 2026 21:19:32 GMT

Why are my episode details months out of date eg this weeks Coronation Street is referring to RIta, a package and Blackpool and Emmerdale is referring to Mack and Chloe. Everything was ok last week when i was reading the sneak previews

Which TV box are you using? Have you checked for updates, or reset? Is it permanently connected to the internet?

It the TV hub box and yes always connected to the internet. I've had an software update, disconnected the box and the router but none of it has made any difference, When i glance at the front of the information box it is current info but as soon as you expand it the details is historic and months out of date

Hi there @LorryLol. I am very sorry to hear this. Please reboot your TV box and confirm and confirm what happens. Often restarting your TV box can help reboot your system and may remove previous bugs. If you want to restart your TV Box and broadband router, follow the steps below.

Perform a full shutdown and restart of your router leaving it off for at least 30 seconds before turning it back on. The router can be restarted using the on/off button, this is usually located on the side or back of your router
Switch your TV Box off using the button on the rear
Unplug your TV Box from the power socket
Wait ten seconds and plug the TalkTalk TV Box back into the power socket
Switch on your TalkTalk TV Box checking that the button at the back of the box is in the ON or I position
Once ready, press the standby button on the front of your TalkTalk TV Box

@nambuso-TT

There isn't an on/off button at the back of the box, just the one on the front, otherwise i have disconnected everything, reconnected and rebooted but the problem still exist.

Any further advice please?

@LorryLol

One thing I can't see you having tried is factory resetting your box.

This will reset your box as well as ensuring the latest software is installed correctly.

Details on how to do this can be found here. Use the drop down further down the page as clicking the tv hub link does not work.

Another customer is reporting a similar, but not the same issue.

Can you confirm which transmitter you pick up your signal from please?

I am having the exact same issue for several weeks.now - factory reset works only for a day or so then the guide switches to the horrible yellow colour and pressing the information button gives description for series 1 episode 1 of whatever programme it is regardless of what is being shown in that time slot - it is infuriating to have to reset box every couple of days

With the help of another customer, I feel this is done by design.
