Sky Q Pin number entry on movies

Is there a way to stop the Sky Q box from asking for a PIN number when going onto Movie channels?

 

I have already switched off all of the parental settings which appear to control this functionality, but it still asks me to enter a PIN every time I go to a movie channel (unless the movie is a kids one).

 

Our kids have moved out so I don't need to be asked to enter my pin every time I go onto a non U movie.

@Cat1967 There is no way to turn it off before 9pm, that's due to Ofcom and their mandatory daytime pin requirement

You can't stop the requirement, but you could set your pin to something simple to enter e.g. 1111
