Yeah, a bit pointless. Almost as pointless as the app being added I think it’s now the fourth (or fifth) device I can access an app I don’t subscribe to on!

Some viewers love the "new way" of watching via apps. But give me an TV Channel over an app any day of the week.

Over on the Sky forums, some of the folk with access to closed forums have indicated that’s looking like Peacock starts rolling out for Sky Q and Plus customers this Tuesday (16th November).

A story I posted last night has since been found out to be fake news (We use an new source).

I am really very sorry about that.

It appears that SKYQ customers are going to get another 12 months of Discovery+ for free.

I saw something about that, the source gave the impression it wasn't necessarily going to be for everyone, just select customers.

It sounds like Peacock content will be integrated into the On Demand libraries on Sky+HD , Sky Q and Now from tomorrow before launching later on Sky Glass so no mention of the standalone app being available at launch.

There is a rumour Netflix no longer have the UK rights to Star Trek Discovery and will be on Paramount+ when it launches in January.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was true to be honest.

From info seen at work channel launches, app launches etc are beginning to wind down now until the new year.
