How to see all scheduled recordings, even if not being transmitted at moment

I can find all my scheduled  'to record'  programmes by:

"Sky button on the remote. Select Scheduled"

 

I find that some programmes which were series sheduled in the past,  but are not being transmitted now will re-start recording again.

 

So we watch Vera on ITV. So each year, when there is a new series starts, we don't need to re-add it as as it reappears 'by magic' on our scheduled recording list. So the Sky Q box has remembered the entry for Vera   'somewhere'.

 

How do we find those 'ghost' entries?    i.e.  Vera has now ended,  so it is not displayed in our recording schedule,    how to we find it now?

@BrighthelmstoneYou can't, these are known as "smart links" and unfortunately not 100% reliable. They are set when you watch a series and unfortunately saved in your Q box but not available to review. They only activate and place a recording once the programme information is in the planner. Some channels are better/worse than others as they depend on data sent by the channel. I have found that Channel 5 is one of the worse at remembering and setting recordings.

This, unfortunately, also means that if there are any programs that you don't want to record future series of, you can't stop the process until it schedules the first one.
