And for an added bonus, it looks like you can randomly ask for something like http://uk.tv.yahoo.com/listings/bbc-one/2008-03-06/14-00/ which then redirects to the start time of the program that's on at the time you asked for.

A little more clarification, though: the same updates made their way into <a href='http://fr.tv.yahoo.com/' rel="nofollow">the Yahoo! France TV site</a>, too, and will be hitting <a href='http://de.tv.yahoo.com/' rel="nofollow">Germany</a>, <a href='http://it.tv.yahoo.com/' rel="nofollow">Italy</a>, and <a href='http://es.tv.yahoo.com/' rel="nofollow">Spain</a> at some point, too.
