Oh, for the flexibility of ShowShifter!
Cheers anyway. <sigh>

You've no need to do that. As long as the program that you've scheduled
hasn't started recording, you can:
1. go into RecordedPrograms
2. choose ViewScheduled,
3. choose the scheduled recording and
4. then choose RecordSettings.
5. There you can add up to 3 hours to the StopTime.
It looks like I'm going to have to do that with each program where there's
a chance it will overrun.
Meanwhile, I've lost the final 2 minutes of Darcey Bussell's farewell
performance. <sigh>
