So if you knew this why didn't you just tell Myth to over-record by an
hour. There are several ways to do this.
Broadcasters assume you are watching the program.
I really do not see that they did anything wrong here.
It is extremely unlikely that folks in the traffic/scheduling department
of the station know anything at all about bicycle racing.
