There is wonderful news for television lovers across the UK! Sky+, which was recently honoured as the set-top box of the year by What HiFi Magazine, continues to improve and expand its fantastic offerings. In a move that brings even more choice to your living room, Sky customers can now enjoy a seamless integration of BBC iPlayer directly into their Sky+ experience.
From today, anyone with a compatible Sky+HD set-top box and a broadband connection can access hundreds of hours of BBC programmes on demand. This exciting update means you can browse the full range of BBC TV channels with ease. Whether you wish to explore content by day or dive into specific categories like comedy, drama, food, or history, the choice is entirely yours. You can also flick through a selection of the most popular on-demand BBC shows from the last seven days.
Once you have found the perfect programme, it downloads directly to your Sky+ planner, allowing you to watch at a time that suits your schedule perfectly. This new feature sits comfortably alongside existing catch-up TV services from Sky, ITV, and Five, all located within a dedicated Catch Up section. Looking ahead, the service is set to grow even further with Channel 4's 4oD arriving next year, ensuring a complete line-up of free-to-air terrestrial catch-up services is available right in your home.
Beyond catch-up TV, the comprehensive On Demand service offers a wonderful 'Library' section packed with box-sets. Currently, you can enjoy hit series such as Mad Men, Stella, and Boardwalk Empire. Sky Movies customers also have easy access to a vast selection of films. This continuous evolution of the platform ensures that Sky customers always have the best possible TV experience at their fingertips.
If you have any questions about setting up your Sky+HD box or need assistance with your broadband connection to access these new features, our friendly team is here to help. Simply give us a call on 0844 448 1671. Calls cost 7p per minute plus your phone company's access charge, and we are ready to guide you through every step of your viewing journey.
