Try this
Install XMLTV-EPGImport Rytec (latest) and the SQLite EPG import plugin (1.2) from the blue button in the Pli Jade image, these downloads can be found by pressing the blue button-software management-downloads-addons/plugins, then find them in the list and press ok.
Now go to the epg settings, press the blue button-system settings-EPG and change the EPG data store to SQLite and EPG location to/tmp (ignore the "this directory has not enough space" you can store 3 days worth in /tmp, set number of EPG days to 3 and disable the next 3 options below. Press green to save and exit.

Next go into EPG configuration, press the yellow button-dreambox EPG config, set the package to Radiotimes UK, time offset 0, number of days 3, enable Use cron (put a cross in the box) and enter an update time of your choice.
Now you press the blue button, this is where you map your channels, you should see a list of all channels in the radiotimes source on the left and a list of your channels on the right, highlight a channel on the left then press ok and the focus will change to your list on the right, scroll down and find the matching channel in your list and press ok, that channel will now disappear from the left hand list and the next channel will be highlighted, just repeat as above until you have mapped all of your channels. When you have them all mapped press green to save and exit to the previous page, now press the yellow to retrieve your epg, this will take a few minutes, when that's done press green to save and exit and you're done, your epg should be available via the red button.

after you have done as freck has posted
Look in tmp for the EPG.DB file and copy it so should you have to reboot then you only need to ftp the file back into /tmp.

hope this may help
