I'd guess that the TV is responding to a "spike" on the scart control line from the Sky+ box. Try turning off scart control on the TV or Sky+ box (can't remember whether Sky+ has this option?)

Alternatively, switch the TV off at the wall. You'll save electricity as well!

The TV is detecting the Sky box coming alive to record through the scart connection. It's a feature of the TV. Turn you TV off at the mains socket (and save energy as well).
