Subjunctive in the subordinate clause?

Hola Hélène
Yes, with a tan solo ... de que you need the subjunctive. It is similar to when we use antes de que... with subjunctive:
A tan solo 20 minutos de que se emitiera el programa...
20 minutos antes de que se emitiera el programa...
20 minutes before the program was aired...
Here is a kwiziq lesson on antes de que and después de que that might be useful.
