Clarification please. If the Origins Network is offering free access to both British and Irish Origins on the 4th of September and free access will begin at GMT 00:00 that means the time would start at 20:00 (or 8:00 pm) on 3 September EST. If it runs until 08:00 GMT that would mean 0400 (or 4:00 am) on 4 September EST. Where does the 24 hours on the 4th come in and do we have the correct GMT times? Since Origins Network is a UK operation, to run a 24 hour free access for the US would mean starting the free access in the UK at 0400 (4:00 am) on 4 September in UK (midnight on the 3rd EST in US) until 0400 (4:00 am) on 5 September in UK (midnight on the 4th EST in US).
