I notice that the Radio Times have added ITV1+1 channels for some ITV 
regions, with cXXXX.radiotimes.com IDs at the moment. So for example,
C2680.radiotimes.com is "ITV1 South East +1". Presumably they have some 
info about which regionalised versions of ITV1+1 exist, which is useful.

For the time being, you can use those CXXXX.radiotimes.com IDs, but from 
past experience the RT data doesn't always copy program descriptions 
exactly from the normal listings to the +1 listings, so if you are 
matching duplicates by description then you may get some duplicates 
recorded. I'm sure the auto-generated "tsod" +1 IDs will come soon, 
which won't have this problem.

Cheers,

John
