Bbc vent

So on Saturday morning Breakfast the BBC were promoting a program, Growing up Down's, BBC3 21st Jan 9pm. Straight away I went to the program schedule to try to record it but it was not there!
There is Sun Sex and suspicious parents instead!
It is meant to be on again next week early morning but I bet that will be changed as well. I rang the BBC but they did not know why it had been changed.
My main vent is why were they promoting an already cancelled program and why can't I find out why it is cancelled?

Shows seem to get postponed a lot these days - whether it is in the wake of Operation Yewtree or some story in that day's news. In an effort not to offend people the Beeb seem to find it easier to pull the show than risk more complaints if someone is offended.

It's still showing as scheduled for 01:55 on the morning of Monday 27th...

For a show to be pulled at this stage there will be a good reason, usually a legal challenge the lawyers need to get to the bottom of, or possibly (unlikley) a technical issue. Nobody wants to pull/replace programmes, it suits nobody.
