Good morning all,
I'm sorry to see you were having a problem with Sky Q over the weekend. I just wanted to jump in to confirm Sky are aware of the issue and continue to investigate. In the meantime a full reboot at the power of your Q box will resolve this temporarily until a permanent fix is put in place.
Thanks or reporting this via the Sky Community 💪

You specifically say your "TV screen". Do you know if it's an issue with your TV or Sky device?
If you're able, try connecting your Sky device into another TV and see if this fixes the issue. If it does, it's an issue with your TV and you will need to contact the manufacturer for this.
If this doesn't work, try restarting your device:
- Unplug your Sky device from the main plug (the one going into the plug socket on your wall).
- Wait at least 4 minutes.
- Turn on your device
- Wait for the system to load fully
- Check channel 998 (Sky+HD, Sky Q, etc.) / channel 501 (Sky Glass/Stream)
If you see picture and hear sound, the issue is fixed.

Re: SkyQ Blue Screen
We've had the same thing happen twice today, we've switched off on the wall, switched back on and it's been ok again but this must be a glitch or something in weather maybe?

Re: SkyQ blue screen
I've had the same issue all evening. Keep switching box off waiting a minute then switching on. That works for around 30 mins then it happens again.
