    I'm lovely on here, in real life I'm a ****.

    I've got this whole on-line persona thing all wrong.

    I just pulled the HDMI cable out of the playstation and stuck it in the laptop instead. Worked a dream!

    I watched it through the browser on a Fire Stick for a while, but it began to buffer quite a lot. No issues through the laptop though.

    Any game which isn't a Saturday 3pm kick off, or main game on Sky, iirc.

    I cancelled sky 12 mths ago and got now tv for playoffs and cricket £25 mth offer. It went up to 30 odd so cancelled that end of September. Sky been pestering me to come back and I've got tv channels and all sports £30 mth. I'd sent the equipment back so they sent a new Q box. £10 admin fee, but they gave me £50 credit. All back on in a couple of days. Obv too late for tonight.

    This isn't true anymore, they're on there as bonus channels (rather than actually pressing the red button)

    I hope I am watching on Now TV this evening as I am child minding/ baby sitting at Junior DR1's this evening. Don't ask how it is done though. I'll be following his instructions.

    I think they're just at the bottom of the list of channels on the main page or under sports (at least they are on my smart TV app)

    You can also get red button games on NowTV for the PS4, or at least you could last year.

    No idea why that's an exception, but there we go.
