Watching BBC News on Sky Glass via Playlist

[sdmsfc2]

MY elderely father is new to Sky Glass and looking for some help.

He used to record the BBC News at 6 on his Sky Q box to watch later in the evening via series link.  I thought he could acheive the same thing on Sky Glass by adding BBC News at Six to his playlist via pressing + on the TV guide.

It shows as being added to the playlist, but only shows icons for future episodes rather than giving him a shortcut access to the latest programme.

Would appreciate any advice

Thanks

Hi @sdmsfc2 

Sky say:

"News programmes can be added to your Playlist. Sky News, Sky Sports News and CNBC News can all be added. However, some news programmes can only be watched live while they're broadcasting due to licensing restrictions.

BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 news programmes are made available for up to 24 hours after the broadcast.

To help you catch up on all the latest news we have a dedicated 'News' category which pulls this all together for you"

As Glass and Stream doesn't record locally it's different to Q and rights issue come into play. Hope this helps.
