d1 doesn't provide data for all states, even though their web service 
claims otherwise. In those states (SA, where I am, is one) you need to 
use an alternate tv_grab_au that scrapes another site. One written by 
Damon Searle (thanks btw!) uses tvguide.ninemsn.com.au. I can repost 
that if needed.
