When I voice search or manually search for a Prime show or film on Stream, the option appears for me to add it to the playlist. Howrver, if I've already accessed the Prime app via Stream and then find a show or film I like, it won't let me add it to the playlist. Even if I start playing the show or film, it still won't let me add it to the playlist. It's the same with other apps, such as Netflix. The sales and promotional bumpf from Sky states that I should be able to add directly from these apps. Any ideas to fix this?

yes this is the norm - you can only add to the playlist from the home screen / sky searches / tv guide
you can't add content to the playlist from any of the catchup apps

Thanks for confirming.
Their promotional material states 'With Playlist you can add all of your favourites from live TV, on demand, apps including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, Disney+ and more. It's a bit misleading and would be really useful to be able to do this while browsing one of these apps.
thanks again.

it does get a bit confusing as I have some shows in my Disney app watchlist and others in my sky playlist - I have been meaning to sort it out when I got a spare half hour
