Hi Sky, I have a new Sky Q box and when I have finished viewing a recording and wish to delete it I

Hi Sky, I have a new Sky Q box and when I have finished viewing a recording and wish to delete it I get message "This item is currently being watched and cannot be deleted right now". This comes up even though stopped watching the programme. What am I don't wrong how can I delete when finished watching? Thanks.
