Cousin in Colombo says they cut from Perahera to the news - still looping somewhere or is 10pm the end of TV
Cousin was watching something that still looked like "takes to the streets." Then it cut to pineapples and a gold theft. Ada's site still has the 6.40 commence under a Dragons award and an Angulana rescue. Family wants to know if they missed an ending. Is 10pm when TV drops Kandy or is there another channel still on the loop.

As of ~10:03, Ada Derana latest is a Dragons-of-Sri-Lanka gold (~13 min), Angulana commendation (~18 min), then the Fourth Kumbal "takes to the streets" still at ~1h. Daily Mirror breaking is pineapples (~20 min) and Sallay's wife (~46 min). Newswire matches that. Newsfirst has no 21 Aug wrap on this crawl. Treat "they cut to news" as the live state. There is still no finished recap to have missed.
The street being quiet is the ending. TV often stays on the commence item. Send a pin that you are in. Do not hunt channels at 9.54.
Derana's own gold award on top of Ada is not a Perahera wrap. Do not tell family the procession is "still going" because the 8.14 item has not been replaced.
Scam Watch: colombo
Driver claims the meter is broken and quotes an inflated flat rate. Common on arrival at airport or railway stations when tourists are tired and disoriented.
Drivers wearing official-looking uniforms claim to be "government-approved" and charge 3-5x normal rates. They may have fake badges or ID cards.
Women with babies approach asking you to buy milk powder at a nearby shop (not cash). The shop is run by accomplices and charges 5-10x normal price.
