Bravia Core App being blocked by Broadband shield

I have today tried to use the Sony Bravia Core app on my TV today and after much messing about I've discovered it's being blocked by Skys Broadband Shield, it's always been fine to use but today I can't get it to run without switching off the shield. Any ideas much appreciated

You can block/allow individual websites on Sky shield. Take a look at this help link

yes as long as you have a URL to block, the URL will be listed in the app for where it gets its content streamed from, you'd have to find that out and i doubt sony will tell the public that. the app opens fine even if rolled back to early version that worked and still doesnt work, so the braodband shield AI (3rd party) so i hear has mis catograised the sony bravia core app, its the same as all the other streming services but typically sky saying theres nothing they can do
