Searching in BBC Catch Up

How can I search for a programme in BBC Catch Up - All? On the Sky + HD box I could type in letters to start the search, but seem unable to do this in Sky Q

Hi @Robert7373 Simply pick up the remote and press the voice button and say the name of the programme. Alternatively, press the search button (looks like a magnifying glass) and enter the letters as normal. There is no need to be in the BBC Catchup section.

Thank you for the tip, what I was actully wanting to do was browse through what was on offer, and start the search at a particular letter (say 'G' just as an example) rather than having to scroll down for ages until I reach programmes beginning with that letter. Hope that makes sense.

Why not use the BBC iPlayer app? That has inbuilt search functions
