On the regular Premium sub there are ads in the series on Peacock but I don't think they are during the films.

Only had it a couple of days I’ll let you know.

There’s a Premium Plus as well, but I didn’t go for it.

With the Plus pack most of the live stuff still has ads.

Goes back to needing to pay more for the same content.

Strangely NCIS Hawaii premiered on Disney+ yesterday despite Paramount owning it.

Sky don't have a Output deal with Showtime anymore either, it's quite clear they don't have the rights to new seasons of existing Showtime dramas either

There is no sign of Alibi airing the 3rd season of Evil , it isn't on Alibi in September, the Friday repeats of S2 were removed at the start of August which isn't a good sign.

It's referring to new seasons premiering on Disney+ rather than Sky, it appears the only Disney owned show left that will still be premiering on Sky is The Simpsons.

It seems inevitable the National Geographic and Nat Geo Wild channels will close at some point probably comes comes down to carriage contracts with Sky and Virgin.

I see in US the price of Hulu is increasing by over 14%

Disney also own Baby TV but wiki says Sky part own Baby TV too.

I don't think Sky have any involvement in it , it's fully owned by Disney now since 21st Century Fox sale completed in March 2019.

Our contract expired in June, but gave our 30-day notice last week. Virgin couldn’t get us below £110, but Sky offered us everything for £97.
