Discovery+ have updated their app and many myself included can no longer sign in, some on DS also saying they have lost access to the free tier too.
The updated is suspected to be in preperation for HBOMAX launching in the UK.

I find Cordbusters usually have errors in their articles about VM. For example, their recent article about the updated voice search feature on Horizon boxes, suggests that Netflix results are included in voice searches, when they aren't.

The only way to search for Netflix programmes is by using the on screen keyboard (and then you have to fiddle around trying to move over to the box at the top right to change 'all' to 'Netflix' (even though 'all' isn't really all, as it doesn't include Nextflix).

And finally, the Netflix search results havent been updated and are still text-based anyway.

I think Sky Atlantic is safe has Sky will put shows that cost Sky £?m to make on it when move to Sky One or Sky Witness (I see that Sky has already make cuts to Sky Witness with Car chases and Airports shows being shown from 3om to 8pm every weekday.)*

Same poster that hinted at Sky One coming back

Sky viewing relations are saying Sky Replay is closing soon aswell.

Probably isn't the last channel to close long term.

Looks like Humax will be coming to the rescue for those of us who don't want to eventually transfer to a streaming only box:

If it does return to cable, whilst the launch date is TBC, it's said to be very likely this month (October).

It would be part of the standard TV packs this time, rather than a bolt-on bundle of Disney kids channels which I recall was what it was last time. Theoretically a wider reach as there are more people with access.

It appears Sky Sports HD is now included as standard with HD add on removed?

The other Kids Channels (Sky Kids, Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon , Boomerang) are paid subscription add on

On Sky it's £8 including Baby TV.

On Virgin it's £5 excluding Baby TV which is additional £3.50

Ah. Okay, thanks. Still got the Kids Channels as had them prior to them being part of a seperate pack so I don’t really know for sure what’s not “standard’.

The SD Sky Sports channels will be removed from VM then if HD is the same price now. Amazed it’s taken so long, it surely would’ve made things simpler and cheaper for both Sky and VM.

Think this was done on Sky years ago.
