Lightning not allowing events of any length other than 1 hour or 1 day

Can no longer create events within Lightning for any time span other than 1 hour or, if an all day event, for a period longer than 1 day.

Entering times for an event of start: 16:10 end: 16:30 defaults to a start of 15:30 to give an hour long event.

The same happens when logging an event starting at 09:30 and ending at 13:00 - it resets to 1 hour.

Has something changed in the default settings, because this used to work!

Chosen solution

Next to the start and end dates/times there is a button and a chain linking them together. When active, the chain ties the end you're not adjusting to the end you are, and applies the default interval. Click the button to unlink these two times.
