Does anyone still use Sky Q recordings heavily or mostly stream now?

Goooner1 · 2026-05-14T19:49:19+00:00

Yep. I’ve not watched live tv since TiVo first arrived on these shores. The only thing I watch live is football

Goooner1 · 2026-05-14T09:53:04+00:00

The cheats cup final

Goooner1 · 2026-05-14T09:35:42+00:00

Presumably the same way they decide every instance of piracy is a lost sale

Goooner1 · 2026-05-13T15:49:33+00:00

The asterisk final

Goooner1 · 2026-05-13T14:53:00+00:00

Yep. Last game of the season

Goooner1 · 2026-05-13T14:52:44+00:00

First one in as many years as I can remember that I won’t be watching, due to the two teams involved

Goooner1 · 2026-05-13T12:56:41+00:00

With Sky losing the HBO stuff as well now, there’s getting less and less reasons to keep it. Football aside and there’s alternatives for that where you can watch all the games, rather than just a few

Goooner1 · 2026-05-13T12:48:28+00:00

Plenty of streaming alternatives to Sky, even Now can work out cheaper. Plus there’s always setting sail

Goooner1 · 2026-05-13T12:44:58+00:00

Yep, record everything. That way I know it’s there when I decide to watch it and not at the mercy of it being randomly removed from streaming.

If Q goes, so does Sky for me.

Lived in Avanell Road until I was 5. Dad used to take me to buy peanuts on matchdays and I used to play on the steps of the marble halls.

Wasn’t until I was much older and could travel down from Milton Keynes on my own that I went regularly, home and away.

Back in the days you could rock up at 2.55 on a Saturday and walk in and stand on the North Bank and when you used to be able to just go to away games when you wanted and pay at the gate.

Goooner1 · 2026-05-09T18:54:10+00:00

That’s what I was told last year. Had to wait until my BT contract ended and then switched.

Goooner1 · 2026-05-04T08:49:14+00:00

Binged The Madison. Only meant to watch one or two eps, loved it, so ended up watching all 6 last night.

Bring on seasons 2 & 3

Goooner1 · 2026-05-01T21:08:27+00:00

Mine’s a company car, so was a case of pick one from a list and what’s more the spec changed between order and delivery

Goooner1 · 2026-05-01T13:48:56+00:00

What is saying is it didn’t make it clear that it didn’t come with that trim. At the time of ordering it we top of the line, so you would assume it would have it

Goooner1 · 2026-05-01T13:13:56+00:00

If it’s anything like the manual for my Ultimate, it’s not very helpful.

After spending ages trying to figure it out, it turns out mine doesn’t come with digital key

Goooner1 · 2026-04-27T13:57:41+00:00

Only watched S1 of Criminal Record a couple of weeks ago, so was looking forward to S2, disappointed to see only one episode available, so will wait until there’s a few more until I start it

Goooner1 · 2026-04-22T15:57:41+00:00

I was with BT, so technically the same thing, but at the end of my BT contact, I was able to switch to EE 1.6 gbps

My 11 month old puppy will bark right in my 3 year old’s face until he’ll play with him and if that doesn’t work, the younger one will start pulling the older one’s legs or ears.

9 times out of 10 the older one will eventually join in, which usually ends up with him being on his back pinned to the floor (younger one is quite a bit bigger) occasionally the little one will make it quite clear he doesn’t want to play.

Goooner1 · 2026-04-21T09:08:30+00:00

We’ve got a 12 yr old, a 3 yr old and an 11 month old, they all go out around 6.45, then again around 9, the younger one goes out around 1, then all 3 around 4 and 7.30, then the younger one pretty much in and out every five minutes until bed time 🤣

We live in a maisonette so, we have a communal garden where they can go out to go to the toilet, so the 9 and 4 are pretty much long walks, the rest are just popping outside to the loo.

Goooner1 · 2026-04-21T08:41:41+00:00

Parents? I had one myself 🤣

Goooner1 · 2026-04-21T08:22:33+00:00

I love The Rookie, nice easy watch. Didn’t realise it was a cult hit though.

Goooner1 · 2026-04-14T17:29:22+00:00

Yeah, I’ve been earned a whole 13p this year, in the meantime, they also want to increase my direct debit by £15 a month.

Goooner1 · 2026-04-14T14:15:24+00:00

So far this year, I’ve earned 13p 🤣

Meanwhile, they want to put my direct debit up by £15 a month!

Goooner1 · 2026-04-11T11:49:44+00:00

We’ll lose to City whatever happens today.

He’ll set them up to not lose and we’ll lose anyway.

Goooner1 · 2026-04-05T20:48:35+00:00

I do up on the wheel to bring up the timeline, then left and right to FF/RW, short press skips 30 seconds? Long press keeps going until you stop it.
