Double-take, # 14

Since having Sky installed some years ago, I’ve found very few errors on its schedule. This, however, is a beauty:


Gibbs’ should, of course, be Gibbs’s (this use of the possessive apostrophe was covered last week); but it’s the relationships that have confused the scheduler: both Gibbs and Fornell have (not concurrently) been married to the same woman, whose present husband’s abduction is the focal point of the episode. Definitely only one kidnap victim, so the are should be is.
