Local broadcaster and programme language
RTHK’s television schedule identifies individual services such as TV31, rather than one undifferentiated broadcaster stream. Its schedule also labels programme-level characteristics, including English programmes and location restrictions on particular items. A service name is therefore only the beginning of the programme description.
A Cantonese programme title can be more precise than an English translation when a household returns to local entertainment or current affairs. Audio, subtitles and the language used to navigate an app should remain separate choices.
Hong Kong time for a dated programme
Asia/Hong_Kong is the clock reference below. When following a programme from Europe or North America, retain the local date produced by the conversion. A late source-market programme can belong to the next morning on the Hong Kong calendar.
Dated local-time examples
These examples convert the same two UTC instants into the listed locations. They are clock calculations, not television listings. A broadcaster’s current programme guide supplies the programme start; the conversion supplies the local date and time.
