Just used the 'Remind me' option during the Game of Thrones advert. I didn't realise that it takes you straight to a special screen giving you the option to record, series link etc. Very slick and impressive.

Hopefully they'll expand on features like these with the new EPG.

When is the new EPG coming out?

Yes its a brand new show.

If you want to keep track of the major new shows that start you can go to the 'Showcase' section of the Sky+ app and it usually lets you know what new shows are starting and also returning series for the popular new shows.

Ive been reading on DS that it was meant to be 16th April but they need to give broadcasters 10 weeks notice. Thanks for the Touch info i saw the tralier and liked it. It set it to record series when i get home as my Remote Record still cant be used to this Thursday :(

---------- Post added at 08:37 ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 ----------

Infact ive done it now via Sky TV Guide website, ill just change it to series link when i get in :)

---------- Post added at 08:44 ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 ----------

P.S. Sorry if some of the questions i have asked and ask now are a bit noobish but never had Sky before so getting used to things from it

Have you ordered Sky talk and Sky BB if so they'll have activated Anytime+ hence why it's working with a VM BB connection either that or they've started the roll out to non Sky BB customers early.

I have ordered Sky Talk Free time and BB Unlimited. It wasn't activated when i had install as they said i needed an active Sky line. I rang up about Remote Record and again they said i needed an active Sky Line. My line doesnt get activated till this Thursday. Checked on Saturday and Anytime+ was activated and now Remote Record is active

They always activate Anytime+ for anyone who's ordered Sky BB so even connecting another ISP will make it work , I take it you already had a BT line and socket it just needed activating by Sky. What speed estimate have they give you ?

It was a BT line before i moved in so VM used the same line so they are just transferring it over. Speed estimate is 9.6 -16.6 MB

---------- Post added at 11:40 ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 ----------

Had an email auto generated email saying i have now activated Sky Remote Record. This came after i Remote Recorded from Sky TV Guide site, done a few from phone and says all ok. Maybe it was just that i need to activate from site first
