Gb news and adsmart?

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more

Not sure if GB News is part of sky adsmart or the channels regional provision has gone amiss.

For many channels on Sky often see very localised adverts shown (assume mostly adsmart) for businesses and organisations in our neighbouring towns and cities.

 

But the last few weeks or so on GB News (Sky q) am seeing a lot of adverts for localised Welsh businesses. At least one of those during each ad break, sometimes  a couple.

Not at all relevant for a South Hampshire based viewer.

 

Anyone else seeing this?

Yes everyone gets the Welsh adverts, even those watching on Freeview or YouTube etc. They seem to be the few advertisers GB News can attract.

Hi Lettice, yes I live in Scotland and I get lots of local Welsh adverts on GB news which is annoying. I have Sky Glass.
