Not watched much on it but Ted Lasso is a real surprise... everything about it screams disaster but it just works. Beastie Boys Movie is a treat but probably more for fans (same with the Springsteen doc) and On The Rocks is a nice little movie. Going to try and watch a few more things if I can over the next year or so while I have it for free...

I've only looked at the Savile documentary so far which is mainly old footage.

Some people seem to be having problems activating it with the free 12 months on SkyQ but it worked fine here using my phone.

Interesting one this as Entertainment One were one of the first U.K. distributors to set an exclusive deal with a streamer back in 2011 when they signed a deal with Lovefilm which eventually became Amazon Prime.

With the ever diminishing Disney catalogue and fewer theatrical releases coming from the major studios, this is a big win for Sky especially in terms of the catalogue which should add a fair number of older movies that never appeared on Sky due to EOne’s Amazon first window & Netflix second window deals such as Looper & Now You See Me which are already on the service.
