I'd assume it'll happen with any Q or Sky+HD box. Menu changes can usually be updated on the fly.

Re: Peacock TV to sky
If anyone finds any menus on Sky Q relating to Peacock, please post. Thanks.
P.S. Not everything on Peacock UK is available on Peacock US. I am Cait is not on the US Peacock. I won't know more until we can see the full list.

Re: Peacock TV to sky
The movies are there but you have to use the voice remote at the moment (and of course know what's on there from other sources).
Sky Stream, Sky Glass, Panasonic DX902, Pioneer LX-901 7.1.4

I believe the programs are also on. But when you go to On Demand, under reality, there is one program on Peacock that's notlistedin any of the press releases. I am Cait is not listed.. Given that we don't have a full list of what's available and no way to find out, I do think this roll-out is a disaster.

Bit of an over-reaction, I think. The rollout hasn't even finished yet, so declaring it's a disaster is a touch extreme.
The Sky Help page - https://www.sky.com/help/articles/using-peacock - shows there's going to be a section specifically for the Peacock content. That's what the voice command will take you to once they've pushed out all the updates.

Re: Peacock TV to sky
@rscott But the Peacock infrastructure should have been ready so when it came to the release, all Sky had to do was to put it in place and done. As it is, we have a rollout without a proper way to access the content without knowing titles.
It's like having a mostly empty EPG with only a few programs listed here and there and a list of some more programs to look up.

That's exactly what's happening - it takes time to publish thousands of hours of content to the delivery platform used by Q, + and Go.
So they're pushing out the programmes to the delivery network and, once that's in place, will update the menus to make it easy to find all of it.
No point having the main landing pages if the bulk of the content isn't available yet - getting errors on a lot of it would be far worse.

Does anybody really care that much? Just because the content is being added, and will take time to populate for users, doesn't make it a disaster.
The vast majority of content will already be available anyway... just now with a Peacock badge instead of a Sky one.
Go about your day and I'm sure the content you're clearly excited about will be added as time goes on.

Via the Catchup and Boxsets menus.
Really? I know it's only day one but this is hopeless. I have looked through Catch-Up Featured, Catch-Up Channels, On Demand Featured, OD Box Sets, OD Channels & the apps section & all I've found are 6 programmes & they were under OD Featured> Top Picks & Reality. Where are the all promised shows?

I'm hoping that Peacock will be working sometime today. I'm not holding out any hope for Paramount+ unless that rolls out as an app. I'm hoping that if Paramount+ is an app that it lives streams the Paramount channel in HD.

When the rollout has finished, they'll be as per here - https://www.sky.com/help/articles/using-peacock#general-tv
I can already see a lot on Q by going to Apps then Peacock. Once the've finished updating, then they'll be available via voice search too.

Re: Peacock TV to sky
Many, maybe even all of the shows are there if you search for them by name. There is just no Peacock menu showing the full collection.

There's a Peacock link in the apps section now.
