Just found it:-

Dear xxx

Thank you for your e-mail regarding 'Rough Diamond'.

I appreciate your disappointment that the last episode in the series was
broadcast at 19.00 instead of in the usual 20.00 slot.

This was not a schedule change as it was broadcast as billed in the
Radio Times and announced on the programme's website.

We do of course want to secure the widest possible audience for our
programmes - which are financed by our licence payers. This means
ensuring the programmes receive adequate publicity and prominence in
trails and listings magazines, and that they are placed in schedule
slots that the intended audience is likely to find convenient.

We know that erratic scheduling can lead to the frustration and
annoyance of our viewers and so we try to find a suitable regular slot
for our popular drama series. Unfortunately, sometimes other commitments
can affect weekly schedules.

Nevertheless, I appreciate your disappointment at missing the last
episode and let me assure you that your complaint has been fully
registered on our daily audience log. This internal document will be
made available to the scheduling team and Senior BBC Management.

Feedback of this nature helps us when making decisions about future BBC
programmes and your comments will play a part in this process.

Once again, thank you for taking the time to contact us with the
strength of your concerns.

Regards

Paul Kettle

It was widely reported last year that it was axed. I think I put a post on here about it at the time as the story featured in the Racing Post as the series was racing related and was the only British horse racing related series that I am aware of since Trainer some many years ago.
