Inappropriate programming advertised during the day on sky glass

Courtney58 — Fri, 17 Jan 2025 23:38:26 GMT

How can I filter/disable the recommendations that flick on screen when sky glass is idle? There is currently a Marilyn Manson documentary being advertised before the watershed hours, to say my 5 and 2 year old were terrified is an understatement. I immediately turned off the tv, prior to this they had been watching CBeebies and it was early afternoon. Is there anyway I can access a parental control if my viewing of the tv is idle? And hide content not suitable for children?

Unfortunately not and it's been a consistent source of annoyance for many since glass first released. I believe it is supposed to be filtered during the day time but I'm not sure how this works ! I've also seen the Marilyn Manson one yesterday .

The parental controls within settings will not control such things.

Would suggest passing on your concerns by sending an email to the Sky Viewer relations team to report it;

ViewerR@sky.uk

They do respond to emails for your queries.

They should also pass on such concerns to the relavant Sky team.
