I suspect your film was recorded from the old BBC1-SD channel which was removed from VM in January 2022, replaced by BBC1-HD. As part of these changes, EPG data was retained for a year I believe, allowing those recordings to remain accessible - the grace period is more often 6months at best.

Once that EPG data is removed, this error is the result - the recording is not recoverable and should now be deleted.
