Have you checked the log ?

When I was setting this up I saw this "127 errors" in the Status screen  
after a few seconds: it turned out the job was failing.
Can't remember why exactly but I do remember the script having permission  
issues when writing its log to my Mythbuntu system.

FWIW I don't watch Lewis but, like others, it does work for me on ITV1
