When I select a film to series link (not on a Sky channel) and try to replay a day or more after, I find it has reverted to the same movie on Sky Store rather than the original.
Any way round this?

Depending on which channel the film is being broadcast, it may not be available to watch on catch-up for free, it depends on what broadcasting rights the channel has which is showing it. Sky won't necessary legally be able to take a cloud recording on the film as its broadcast on the channel.
If you open the film from your playlist and scroll down, you may see an "Available Now" section on the page, if you scroll down to that some "Play on ..." buttons will appear which will display all the services the film is available to watch on. Some of these may be free to view services like iPlayer, ITV X etc, others will be subscription services like Prime Video, Netflix, Paramount + etc. The default is typically always set to Sky Cinema or Sky Store ( as its a sneaky way of Sky promting Sky Cinema or that a film is available to buy or rent on Sky Store)

Re: Series Links
Thanks for that ... the default to Sky Store is indeed sneaky as you say. Again appreciate you taking the time to reply
