As we are only at the very start of the 14 day window for receiving
listings for March 25th, more may appear if these errors are not
corrected upstream quickly. The upstream bug report notes invalid
programme start times on the following channels:

Comedy Central Extra +1
Dave ja vu
Discovery History
ESPN Classic
MGM
Movies4Men 2
MUTV
