    it's part of the on-demand section.
    without seeing the advert it's not possible to say whether those channels were listed as part of "on demand" or "catch up".

    it's a tad non-comital to be honest.
    doesn't specifically mention them other than the tiny logo in the graphic.

    probably will be added at some point, when no specific date.
    H2 is also there and that only launched a few days ago.

    I agree but it certainly looks like the intention is to add other channels as the page says 'Catch Up TV were adding new channels all the time'.

    H2 is already within the History tab (as was Military History)

    Just a quick note to point out, that there is now a box sets tab which is a nice addition. On demand just gets better and better.

    Nothing new added as far as I can see, Box Sets just replaces the Library tab by the looks of it.

    Just noticed this as well. My box was in standby this morning as if an update had been done. Now noticed that the Library tab has gone and now called box sets.

    It would be good to have SyFy, Universal and Fox included in the catch up service.

    There is a lot I watch on Syfy so it will be good to have catch up.
    I like the silly films they show and have missed a few lately.
    So hopefully they get added.

    "We're replacing the TV library in our On Demand service with a new section called TV Box Sets on demand. From 7 May, it'll only be available to customers with our brand new pack, Entertainment Extra+.

    Don't worry - you can continue to watch any episodes from box sets you've already downloaded to your Sky+HD box. And you'll always find plenty to enjoy through On Demand including the UK's biggest Catch Up TV service, Showcase and movie rentals from Sky Store. "

    Cheers for this, I had wondered why I was able to download Game of Thrones season 1 the other day and when I tried season 2 on Wednesday it said I needed to upgrade.

    Thanks for this post :)

    Something not right here, I'm on the full package and Box Sets is available to me.

    Edit:

    Just re-read the Sky info - This refers to those on EE+ as it's called TV Box Sets, I'm assuming the tab will just say Box Sets for those not on EE+.

    No, it is called Box Sets for everyone. What it means is you need Entrrtainment Extra+ as a minimum. Those who are on the old HD pack still get box sets.

    Not sure if it's in any way connected with the recent changes, but I'm getting some terrible lag on the On Demand section.

    It's always been absolutely spot on but It's almost Virgin-esque now! Hopefully it will sort itself out soon.

    Has the Sport archive been removed from Box Sets. There was previously an archive of sports, and Sky Sports was in the Channels section. I still have Sky Sports on the Catch Up.

    It was removed from the library section a few weeks ago, maybe even a couple of months ago.

    Thanks. I hadn't used it since early April I think, and was browsing for it today. That is disappointing if they have dropped it. All part of the adding value to our subscriptions - not.

    It's now in the Catch Up section of On Demand.
