Vertical blocks on screen
My Sky Glass TV has developed vertical bands with no colour across the screen. It’s visible on all content and menus.

Re: Vertical blocks on screen
Try powering off at the mains for at least 5 minutes. This will clear any software glitch that can cause such issue. If that doesn't work try leaving unplugged overnight.
Failing that you will need to ask sky to replace your set if under warranty as this could point to a hardware failure.
