so for the 26.99 (you pay 24.99 with the 2 quid discount) do you get discovery + or just TNT Sports?

TNT Sports only plan on Discovery+

The "subscribe to watch" VoD flag sounds like a flag is set incorrectly. What's the programme in question?

The £25 charge for no-fault-found has always been in-place, but perhaps the CS script is now being more proactive in mentioning it.

The "subscribe" error was still there at 18:00 yesterday, but it was gone at 21:00. So I cancelled the tech visit online (I don't want to be handing over £25).

The programme in question was "Doc" (Sky Witness HD 110).

As I cancelled the tech visit, the reporting page did checks and came back with "Intermittent signal in your area".

No , It doesn't include Discovery+ entertainment content at all and there is no option to on O2 Extras either....

Guess it wouldn't make sense for Discovery+ entertainment plans to be available if they are going to be discontinued for new subscribers in a few months...as they have done outside the U.S where HBO Max has launched.

Re: Earlier post about Disney Jnr returning. Now been confirmed that it restarts on Sky on 13/11/25, no mention of Virgin, so we'll have to wait and see.

with comcast interested in buying itv could any deal resurrect the chance of NBC Sky World News?

that channel was going to launch but then the pandemic occurred. they could in theory merge the two news departments (sky and itn)

New app for 360 and Stream/Flex customers - OnDemand Streaming.
Provides OD access to some of the assets on the streaming channels.

Another new app that's launched (today?) is Watch Free, featuring on demand shows and movies from the True Crime and Legend channels.

I've had this app on my tablet for a while, you usually don't get any full series on it. An example is Star Trek TOS only has 5 episodes available.

This app is also on V6 boxes. Not much content, seems to be mostly a CatchUp App for some but not all of the FAST channels.

Not showing on V6, so I guess they are sticking with using VM’s servers for that box.

Good quality picture, much better than the new FAST channel, cooking, gardens etc, which is stuttering.

It won’t be on either Virgin or EE, and it won’t be on NOW either.
