Playlist refresh now live.

[Jayboy1990]

Playlist tab added at the top of homepage. 

Play now rail has become 'Continue watching'.

No update here 😢 

Is it through a software update or just background update.

EDIT: Got it after a reboot

[Jayboy1990]

It should have just appeared, no update needed as its a 'switch on' within the current software. 

You could try a reboot. @Anonymous

@Jayboy1990 

Yep reboot did it, thanks 😊 

[Jayboy1990]

Still no way to remove any trapped or unwanted programmes in 'Continue watching'.

I had a feeling this might end up being a visual change and not actually a mechanical change!

Feeling deflated by this addition.

Well they've screwed this up it's worse!!!

All episodes are back watched as well. I don't have continue watching I do have most recent.

What a mess how the hell could they make it worse!

At least previously the Play Now rail had the latest episode to watch now everything is mixed together watched and unwatched.

Jeez idiots!

[Jayboy1990]

I dont see this as an improvement @Anonymous 

I had hoped that the 'continue watching' tab - (where 'play now') use to be to include a Netflix style remove from continue watching option. 

When selecting a programme with multiple series i thought they could have implemented the most recent series first i.e. 15 series would show series 15 at the front and not the end.

Where is Continue Watching?

I don't have that!

There is going to be uproar over this what were they thinking 🤬🤬🤬

[Jayboy1990]

Continue watching is further down the homepage where play now used to be. 

I have just found that when i add a new programme to playlist, it doesnt show up in Continue watching. 

I have to go through many more menus and clicks, Playlist -> Most recent -> select programme -> Play it and then i can track the series in Continue watching. Previously this was add to playlist go to Play now -> Play!!!

@Jayboy1990 

No 100% don't have that!

Just tried the steps as you have done for 3 programmes and nothing. 

[WelshPaul]

No continue watching here either.

Edit: Yes I do. No idea if I just couldn't see it or if it only just appeared. 👀

[Jayboy1990]

Youll need to wait for the image to be approved but that shows the continue watching rail.

Yes I started a programme and stopped and continue watching has popped up. But, will new episodes appear here as per the old Play Now rail? If they do then happy days if not then there is no easy way to track what latest episodes of a series are available.

I have several playlist items not watched but none have populated in continue watching, your daily appears to have fully populated.

Sky have achieved nothing here other than moving the playlist menu to the top rail. No added features 😑 

If anything this has made things worse if I check episodes it assumes I've not watched them!

Some programmes show the latest episode first others series 1 first.

Total and absolute mess. Not Impressed.

SO, YES ONCE YOU HAVE WATCHED AN EPISODE IT WILL TRACK TO THE NEXT ONE. WHAT IT DOESNT DO IF PICK UP ON A NEW SERIES THAT YOU ADD AND HASNT STARTED YET. I.E. YOU ADD TONIGHTS IM A CELEB AND IT BECOMES AVAILABLE YOU HAVE TO GO INTO MOST RECENT THEN PLAY AND IT STARTS TRACKING. NOT THE WAY PLAY NOW WORKED.

SAME ALL MY EPISODES HAVE RESET TO UNWATCHED, APART FROM THOSE SITTING IN 'CONTINUE WATCHING'. 

Some programmes show the latest episode first others series 1 first.

VERY INCONSISTENT. 

Total and absolute mess. Not Impressed.

Aha, i think i have cracked the backwards displaying, if content is from on demand/skys servers they display backwards. 

If from an app, such as all4 the series show the same old fashioned way!
