About 20 mins in, they cover ways to do this easily.

The first way is to use a Chromecast Dongle, which is now available in the UK for £30 and contains a browser:

The second way they covered was the use of a Roku stick and the third was Amazons Fire TV (currently only available in the USA).

Can any of these be used to access Now TV, to enable those VM subscribers who use this to watch Sky Atlantic to enjoy a better viewing experience?
You can watch NowTV (albeit with the usual quality issues) on a tablet or smartphone, so I guess you can then stream it to a Chromecast or similar. Having said that, Sky disables the HDMI out on the Sky Go App, so they may have done similar with NowTV.
