I checked a fare on BA.com from Manchester to Edinburgh 22 Dec returning the same day. The inital selection shows the lowest outbound fare to be £22 on the day however, on selecting the flight times the lowest indicated fare rises to £76 for the outbound leg excluding taxes and charges. The are no flights with a £22 seat available.

BA say that the fare shown is "an indication of the lowest fare available on the day selected"</font>
Actually the lowest outbound fare now showing is £16 but it is not available if you return the same day. Play with your return date and it will appear.
