Sky+ gone mad! by
Tumbleweed
My Sky+ refused to stop recording a programme this evening (even after it
had finished it carried on recording). A previous program overran for about
10 minutes before it stopped. Pressing 'delete' on the programme recording
put up 'deleting' for about 2 seconds and then it reverted to...

Any good? Reliable? Seems like an amateurish site. Curious if they are any good.

Sky One "Toughest Pubs In Britain" by
OnePunchMickey
Started off well, however having strippers on at lunchtime does not a hard
pub make. Only about 2 of them looked actually dangerous, the rest were
just normal local/estate pubs with actual people and no thumping sound
system / brewery identikit ****e. Also, failed to include the County
Borough in...

Pace (old) forgetting listings by
Dan delaMare-Lyon
Tell me I'm not the only one who's got a * revision digibox that's
forgetting it's listings constantly?
It seems to have started happening as they've been updating box
software. It's bloody annoying - seems to do it every few hours now.
Cheers
Dan.

Alias: Season 3 by
Thomas
Anyone know if/when Alias is due back on Sky? I'm a little worried as I
haven't seen the show in any of their recent promos!
The way they treated it last year - shunting it off to Sky One Mix half way
through the season was abysmal! :-(
