Start with the programme as it is published
Take the channel name, date and original title from the publisher’s listing. A translated title can help in conversation, but including the original Sinhala, Tamil or English title helps when the next viewer searches the broadcaster’s archive. Check the programme’s description or playback controls if language matters. The channel logo alone gives you very little to go on.
Keep Channel Eye in its own bookmark
Channel Eye has a separate site from the main Rupavahini service. If you are following a fixture or a special broadcast, check which outlet the broadcaster names for that date. A national channel, a sports-facing service and the website player can have different schedules. Keep the specific event notice as well as the channel link so someone who opens it later can see what you meant.
Look for ITN’s programme before searching clips
Use the ITN live page at airtime. If the programme has finished, go to the show catalogue and search for its named series or edition. Where you find multiple parts, copy the episode date as well as the page title. For a playback question, include the language or subtitle choice you tried and the device model so someone else can check the same edition.
