@Ruth2e are you trying to remove specific programmes or the entire rail. Removing specific items is actually harder. If you let us know I will know what advice to give you.

Hi again @Ruth2e If you log into your MySky account at www.sky.com and then click on the small head and shoulders icon (top right).

Then from the My Details menu select Data & Personalisation. There you will find various toggle switches but the one you want in near the bottom of the page and is called "Sky Glass Product Analytics, Personal Recommendations & Profiling"

If you switch the toggle to OFF it will remove your continue watching rail (it may take a few hours to disappear). If you later decide to turn it on again it will take a day or so to start re-populating with the programmes you have watched since you turned it back on.

Personally I find the CW rail very useful but also very frustrating in that you can't easily remove programmes you no longer want to watch and in some instances you can't remove them at all. When my rail starts to get too many unwanted items in it I use the above procedure. From memory it takes roughly overnight for the rail to disappear and then a couple of days to start re-populating again with new programmes.

I hope this helps.

Did you have to enable the setting for it to start repopulating new shows.

Yes - the setting needs to be switched ON for it to start populating the CW rail again. However it can take a couple of days of shows to start displaying.
