Free movie every saturday

[K84]

I was told I can get a free movie every Saturday. How do I access it?

@K84  try channel 106,, there is a film on now and another at 9:50, but note their is no guarantee of a film every Saturday

The Sky Showcase channel 'free movie' today is LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring (2001) which, to be honest, has been broadcast once or twice before in the near quarter century since it was released.

Some sales reps appear to implying that the offer is free access to recent content from a Sky Cinema channel, which is not the case.

I got told the same thing! Is it a publicity stunt?

No, as mentioned in the previous replies a movie is shown on Sky Showcase each weekend. It is usually on Saturday night but due to F1 coverage this week's film (Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers) is on Sunday at 15:10.

@xenon81 it was said on the phone a blockbuster movie not a decades old movie that is probably on netflix anyway? I will challenge this when they call me back on Tuesday

At something like a three billion dollar box office the LOTR franchise is undoubtedly a blockbuster, just a rather old one now...

Some salespeople are undoubtedly overdoing the prominence of the offer though.

Correction @Daniy it's not available on Netflix only Prime Video to Rent of Buy  still a Blockbuster movie 23 years later.

I had the same phone call and I can't remember the channel either. I'm sure they said the film would start at 7pm and that it is Wonder Woman this Saturday 

[xenon81]

It's channel 106 (Sky Showcase) but Wonder Woman was last week's film.
