TV guide disappears on upgrade to latest Netsurf

I upgraded to Dev CL #5442 from #5438, and the TVGuide.co.uk site became
almost unusable as a result -
https://www.tvguide.co.uk/mobile/?systemid=3 now gets automatically
redirected to the unreadable https://www.tvguide.co.uk/freeview

(I switched back to #5438 and found that I could still access the same
pages as before, so I don't know if something has changed about the way
that NetSurf identifies itself - I had JavaScript disabled on both
occasions, because I'm afraid I find that if sites attempt to execute JS
I just get blank pages, whereas if I have it off then at least some of
the time I get a readable alternative.)

If you scroll way to the right of the page you can eventually see
some text appearing about a third of the way across, but almost all the
viewable area before and after that is just a white blank.

(And if you can identify the distorted channel logos at the left-hand
edge, you can click on each one individually to see a complete schedule
for the day on a larger scale then before, e.g.
https://www.tvguide.co.uk/channel/fd66055a-5bc7-51e8-8421-df88e60c98b3/channel-4/1
)

But what we need to know is, do people want nasally-insertable computers?
