Because we know people are busier than ever, we’ve created Sky⁺ to make TV fit around customers’ lives. It’s a truly personal video recorder, allowing up to 40 hours of TV to be recorded and watched later.

Two programmes can be recorded simultaneously while another recorded earlier is watched. Live TV can be paused and rewound so not a second of a favourite show or sports broadcast is missed. Entire series can be recorded at the touch of a button with our ‘Series Link’ feature.

Sky Anytime TV is an innovative service on more recent Sky⁺ boxes that automatically records our pick of the week’s TV for customers to watch when they’re ready. It offers a wide selection of content from Sky and third-party channels, from hit shows and film premieres through to documentaries and dramas.
