Great news! Season 1 was already there as it was one of the first things I set the Sky+ box to download after getting installed. Have plenty of space to add season 2 in HD too

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Unusual for them to announce renewel so early but its obviously going to go the whole distance for the 5 or so books. Imagine the carnage if they said they weren't renewing for a 5th season

Sky have said that they will be adding Atlantic to Now TV. Now we don't know in what form or the pricing, but it could be another option to view such shows before the DVD release.

Entertainment was due to be added to Now TV after sport, and sport has now been added.

I'm not Sky's biggest fan, but I think they made a smart move launching Now TV, and if the price and options are right for Atlantic shows, it won't bother me using the service.

All VM customers are effectively paying Sky anyway by the fact that some of their channels are standard on the service, though not sure at what service level Sky One and Living start on VM.
