Continue watching sky glass

Hi @Chris590  I completely agree with you the CW rail is the bane of my life trying to get rid of unwanted programmes.  A couple of years ago I made myself a list of how to best TRY to remove programmes.  It is a little out of date but in most cases it is still helpful so I will provide a cut & paste below:

The most common method which generally works with Sky, Discovery, ITVX  and Disney is to select the programme from the CW rail and fast forward it to the end.  If it is a series then also run the last episode of the series to the end otherwise the next episode will appear in the CW rail.

Depending on the App you watched from there are so many different ways to remove programmes from CW. Some you have to do on your TV and others on your Laptop etc.

Do on Glass TV:

Apple TV - select from Up Next list with a LONG press / remove

Netflix - Select from CW / remove from CW on next page

Sky, Discovery, ITVX & Disney - run programme to credits and allow to run to the end.  If a series do the same with the final episode of the series.  (It may take a while to disappear)

My5 - Go to settings and select Clear Watch History

Do on laptop:

BBC iPlayer  - CW / Manage full list (on right of screen) / remove

Ch4 / CW - go to My4 > / edit / select then remove

Paramount - Hover over programme and untick  

Prime - Go to CW rail and hover over programme for another menu select 3 dots & then hide (you can’t actually  delete)

Sometimes it can take a while for the programme to disappear and on other occasions they stubbornly remain. It's a bit of a lottery.

Good luck, I hope this helps.

Hi @Deedee36   I actually had to use the list a few days ago when I accidentally selected watch from start when I just wanted to see the programme synopsis.  I wasn't quick enough in cancelling and ended up with a 5 App programme on the CW rail and couldn't remember how to get rid of it.

Thank you, I'll give those a try

To be honest I'm still trying to navigate sky glass, doesn't seem as intuitive as sky Q

Possibly because I've had sky Q for so long or maybe I'm just getting too old to learn new things 😂

It's been trademarked by @Fothergill1 😂

@Jporch316  I should update it and sell it online 🤣

@Chris590 I hope it helps.  Getting used to the layout etc of the streaming platform is a learning curve but you will get there in the end.
