hi @Hezzy

SKY Q does not have the Ad skipping option (recordings do allow you to skip ads) - do you have SKY Stream ?

@Hezzy

There is no 'add free' Sky subscription.

'Ad Skipping' (on Glass/Stream) is limited in application and functionality.

The Ad Skipping pack doesn't mean that you won't see any adverts. It just lets you skip or fast forward through the ads using the relevant remote control buttons and on screen menu options for what you're watching. It doesn't fast forward ads in:

Live TV; or

Other TV apps, like Netflix, YouTube or Spotify.
