We sometimes have consecutive shows recording on the same channel. The
MySky box works fine. With each recording having it's own padded time,
so the first one also records the start of the second, and the second
records the end of the first.
The box used to be able to recrod two shows at the same time, but a
software update some time ago means it can now record three shows at
the same time. It also always "live records" whatever live channel
you're watching, so you can rewind and pause it, which means it's
actually recording four shows at the same time. ("Live record" only
keeps up to the previous hour, and dumps it and restarts when you
change channels.)

Last night I was flicking through the on-screen guide which said the
nightly TV One News was going to start in a couple of minutes, so I
switched to the TV One channel and waited. At the end of the show that
was playing, the squashed closing credits had a box on the side saying
"Next: TV One News". The daily newspaper's guide also said TV One News
was going to play at that timeslot ... BUT, the show that started after
the advert break was NOT One News, it some silly re-run of a reality TV
show. :-\
