@Ian+111  when did you record them? do you have a sky movies subscription? Afaik the screenings over the past week or so have been on sky movies which requires a subscription

The only way you would get to keep them is if you purchase them (Buy and Keep) from the sky store

This is something that crops up occasionally on here. I have seen quotes from Sky staff confirming that recordings will never be deleted from Sky boxes and I personally have never had anything self delete, but every now and again someone posts that it has happened.

@oj01  agree, I've never had a physical recording from a linear tv channel disappear 

 

I always use keep pin protect whether that makes a difference who knows

@Ian+111

What is your sky? Sky q, sky+, Sky glass?

 

Personally with sky q, I have not had a problem with recordings. Only with downloads do the license requirement come in in my experience.

I recorded all the harry potters on my sky a box which has plenty of spare storage and they have all vanished 

@Ian+111 Did you record them from live TV broadcast or did you Download them from Sky Cinema On Demand? 

It should not matter as the Harry Potter movies are not due to expire from On Demand until Feb 27, 2023. So they should be available at least until then. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them does not have an expiry date (download).

Re: Harry Potter movies leaving Sky movies today will they return?

I recall that ITV ran Harry Potter before Sky Cinema got it. I wonder if that's where these missing recordings came from.
