Advent calendar on stream

I have noticed the advent calendar for Christmas and today is Elf. Are these accessible even if you don't have Sky cinema?

Nope - if you open Elf on the Sky streaming platform the available watch options are via "Sky Cinema" (which requires a subscription) or via Sky Store (rent/buy).

Thanks Sky. How generous, eh? They should have made it The Grinch. LOL.

Oh actually, they give that away free last Christmas...

A welcome addition to the Advent rail today.

 

I have always loved the Christmas scenes.

 

Like the Roxi one idea, with an interesting mix of Christmas tunes.

Will be a good holding play out until/if we get those Now music channels soon...

The advent calendar is seemingly just a method of highlighting a Sky "festive thing" every day, so i'd imagine some content would be Sky Cinema films, others might be festive shows being shown on Sky Max.

Re: Advent calendar on stream

Terrible idea by Skyin my opinion this year. Every year they have released all tv specials, christmas scenes and music etc, in a 'Christmas Collections ' section. First day of calendar - Elf, brilliant but only accessible if you have Sky Cinema. How long are we going to hace to wait to see all the specials and subsequent menu that is usually available every year from December 1st?? Bad move Sky, bah humbug!
