I do not have any gaps like that.  I did have a gap or two that might
have been those times about a week ago, but it got filled in the next
day.  And I just downloaded the freeview.xml.gz file a minute ago and
manually checked and for TV One the data for today seems to all be
there.

To fix things immediately, you might like to do this to manually
download the EPG and forcibly update it into the database.  Do this
from your mythfrontend user:

wget http://epg.org.nz/freeview.xml.gz
gzip -d freeview.xml.gz
mythfilldatabase --only-update-guide --file --sourceid 1 --xmlfile
freeview.xml

Change the sourceid value to the correct sourceid for your database.
