The future of satellite broadcasting is uncertain in the long term but at the same time SES are starting to renew their fleet at 19.2E. Sky’s next steps will largely be guided by how many customers wouldn’t have the option to migrate to equivalent services over broadband, and the availability of satellite capacity - whether SES can squeeze more life out of those in place or whether they have alternate capacity that could be made available.

Satellite operators are continuing to invest in launches - although I appreciate that doesn’t necessarily mean they will for the UK.
2035 comes out of what I said in 2015, which is what I believed would be different ‘in 20 years’ time’. You are the one twisting all this to make this ‘absolutist’. I really don’t care what happens, I’m just telling you what it looks like, but you are shutting your eyes to everything going on around you which doesn’t reflect your belief.

You do seem not to be capable of sensible debate and for that reason I’ll leave you to it for now. Just know that this is all playing out the way I thought it would. Only the exact end date for terrestrial and satellite broadcasting is not yet known.
