what's going on with Life on Mars?

The week before last I saw episode 2 on BBC1, then episode 3 (the bombs) on BBC4.
Last week I was abroad, so don't know what happened.
This week episode 3 is on BBC1 and episode 2 on BBC4

WTF?

The episode on BBC 1 was cancelled because of football, and in light of that, the showing of the next episode on 3 was scrapped, and as you see has been replaced by showing previous eps on 4.

Thanks... for a minute there I was worried that they were doing a "Prisoner" and the series would fizzle out...

The whole point of showing the eps on BBC 4 is that they show the next one following on from the ep just shown on BBC 1. Therefore the IRA ep just shown on BBC 1 is supposed to have been followed by the wife swapping ep on BBC 4 now so I really don't know what the BBC is playing at. I switched on and ep 2 had already started so was any explanation given before it began?

I am completely lost and greatly tempted to wait till the whole series has finished and they repeat them properly.
Why do they do this to us?
I'm beginning to think I'm in a parallel dimension as well!
