A time range written as 09:45β10:25. Before the en-dash, there are three dots indicating the positioning of a hairline space.
This here is what's called a hairline space. It is about 0.2mm wide and is one of 178 of them. This is the detail that goes into typesetting the Show Guide that nobody notices if you've done your job well. Enjoy the Show everyone! #mandhshow
