The shows are not really edited. They’re live to tape. As far as I know Fallon and Seth don’t edit anything aside from profanity (which there rarely is) and if there are goofs they’re left...

BT 'in bid to gain control of YouView'

Wasn't aware of that one, although I can get anything I've missed from All4 on the roku or C4+1 SD on Sky, so no big issue not to have it.
