BBC news alert shows up everytime i pause.
I'm not sure if anyone has faced this or a similar issue, but I'm finding that everytime i pause a movie/program, my Sky Glass TV automatically opens a BBC news alert player and starts giving me live news updates.
It's frustrating because everytime it happens, the previous app I was using to play movies etc then has to be re-opened and i lose my time stamp.
I wouldn't mind if the feature activated maybe 15 minutes into pause time, but it is happening everytime I hit pause.
The sky customer care team have not offered any assistance or knowledge on how to resolve this issue.
Please can someone else help?

Re: BBC news alert shows up everytime i pause.
Hi @Billy_H and welcome to the forum. Your issue is not something I have encountered or seen on the forum in previous post. It may just be a software glitch so try rebooting your Glass TV.
To do this go to Settings > System Management > Resets & Updates > Restart device. It takes a couple of minutes to completely reboot and you will have a blank screen for a couple of minutes before the Sky logo appears.
If my post has solved your issue please mark as an "Answer" as it helps others identify the solution
If it has helped please give it a "Like"
