Have a look at the last few posts from this thread on the Sky Community forum
http://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Unlimited-Lite-Connect-broadband/Blocked-sites-not-blocking/td-p/1928578/page/2
They seem to be suggesting that the Sky hub won't block https sites only http sites. If so that might explain the problem you are having.

Ah brilliant, so basically they're using defective hubs & don't seem to ever update the firmware.
Ah well, I'll just put it in the hosts file.
Thanks for finding that, I did actually just make a post about it over there same time I did here.
