Regarding X Factor:

To my knowledge the grabber has not been making this change - at least
for the past weeks.

I think the original source data from Radio Times has not been
distinguishing between the normal show and the results show in the
programme title.   I can find no prog_titles_to_process that should
affect the previous weeks in a bad way.

This Final week is different.  Radio Times has decided to distinguish
the shows and the following rules change that.  I still think this is
better than having Final in the programme title even though the
standard in previous years has been trying to get the programme titles
either "The X Factor" and "The X Factor Results" (i.e. no subtitle
changes to avoid duplicate issues).

8|The X Factor Final~~The X Factor~Final
8|The X Factor Final Results~~The X Factor~Final Results

I have noticed the original data does say 21/21 for the Saturday show
and 21a/21 for the Sunday show.

Perhaps the grabber is not using this information? I am only on 0.5.59
of the grabber however.  I am not sure if this would have fixed the
previous weeks I too have been manually fixing the recordings due to
duplicate problems as it was only recording the Saturday show.

Regarding Strictly Come Dancing:

I did not want to stick my neck out regarding Strictly as I didn't
used to record this and was not involved in the evolution of this
programme rules.  My opinion is the aim of the rules should be to get
the programme title to be either "Strictly Come Dancing" or "Strictly
Come Dancing Results".  This would have been a similar setup to X
Factor and will work as long as the Results show is marked as such in
the programme title in the original Radio Times data.  It requires two
recording rules however but I think this is fine as some people may
just want to see the Results show.

I guess is all depends on your preference, what the grabber is doing
with episode information etc.
