Thanks Nigea99 for the info, it helped....
I deleted all my deleted recordings forever (tile still there) so I then turned my box off and on and the Recordings Continue section is now blank.
I guess the combination of both was required.
Great stuff.

They did not listen to customers when it was new - so not now.
For me - my issue is with the lack of reminders - I know that this has been raised numerous times in the past and the excuse has always been "its a streaming service" but this is not a valid reason - for people who watch live TV, It is a real loss.
Once again, I just use my phone. It takes a couple of seconds to tell it to set a reminder.

@AnonymousI'm a disabled user on a lot of Morphine and Clonazepam for spasms which clouds my memory and I think Q is easy to navigate, its like a new OS on a computer, it takes time to get used to it but if you constantly fight it it will always be a pain, explore it learn it and undertsand its going to be different and it becomes second nature in my view.

How exactly do you use the phone to set reminders ?

I set Reminders on my Sky+HD box for the whole family. Not much point in my phone going off if I'm not at home.

@Chodley saying "sorry but due to skys inability to get its TV box correct we are going to miss your favourite program which starts in 5 minutes"?

No one misses their favourite program especially if they're sat in front of the TV and if they do it's on catch up anyway.
It's one offs that need to be seen live like sport that benefit from reminders.
so yeah it would be marginally better if it had them. It doesn't and the alternatives are more than adequate.

I gave up using reminders for sporting events way before I moved to Q - I used reminders on my phone, set for the start of the actual event, rather than the endless waffling from presenters.
