Is BBC America trying to torture DVR owners?

Last season, I recorded both Doctor Who and Torchwood on my DVR. I was able to "time shift" and watch the shows without any trouble. Suddenly, this season, Doctor Who will not record AT ALL, and the ending of any episode appears to get cut off of Torchwood. I thought it was just coincidence at first, but the circumstantial evidence is starting to pile up.

The Doctor Who episodes are being labelled as NOT first run on this channel, so basically I can record an episode multiple times or not at all. Torchwood appears to start on time, so I can only presume they overrun the 60 minute mark because they add too many breaks.
