Hi
I have Sky tv, and broadband with Talk Talk, as my contract is coming to an end, I can get a cheaper deal with either Sky broadband, or NOW broadband (powered by Sky) My question is, do I still need a 'landline' connection to keep the Sky tv connected?

You need a data bearer ( copper or fibre) for broadband and receive a phone number. If you don't use a landline then choose the pay as you talk tariff. No calls no charges
Sky Stream , Sky Superfast, SR203 router, Tp link td w9970 + Asus RT AX58U (backup), Xbox Series X, google home mini, LG 55 inch uhd tv, with Dolbyvision, samsung a5 2017 and samsung s21
