Hi @Matto+E 

Only by pressing select to bring up the lower info bar and then continually scrolling right to the TV Guide.

Select this and you go to the current program in the TV Guide.

A bit long winded I'm afraid 

In the TV Guide if you are in the Today column you can key in any channel number to go directly to a channel.

Please bring this 'feature' back!

 

it used to be that when you chose TV Guide, the current channel was highlighted or has mentioned wuold jump to where you left off.

Not having the currently viewed / airing channel highlighted in some way is also annoying. Com on Sky Q its 2023, these are bacis funtions on Freeview 😞

100% agree. It is an absolutely essential function / single key command on control required; returning you to tv guide from whence you came.

 

Used to have it on older sky apparently ('Back up to TV guide') but now no option. @Sky - PLEASE make this happen. The down arrow for example! When on channel, down arrow returns uou to the current channels position in the TV guide. You're welcome.

This is a basic function. Come on Sky sort it out.

@Grumpy+Git as Q has been out for 8 years now afraid I don't see the Guide changing to accommodate what you are hoping for.
