Well, that's what we need to find out ;-)

>From looking at the file names the two timers used, I have to assume that the exact same
timer was programmed twice. They were both titled "Die Wochenshow - Classics" and started
at 2001-10-16 at 23:15 with priority 50 and lifetime 98.

What appears to be a little irritating is that the title was "Die Wochenshow - Classics".
There was no such programme at that time on Sat.1 yesterday. Shouldn't that rather have 
been "Die Harald Schmidt Show"? Of course, the file name of the timer can be any string,
but I assume you would have chosen the proper name here.

Have these timers been created by some tool?
What were their original settings? Well, I guess that's hard to say now...
