Peacock TV UK Five nights at Freddy’s

[Speedypotter27]

How do we watch Five nights at Freddy's on Peacock through sky?  When you open the app, there aren't any films showing.  We were told that it would be available free through your SKY Q.  Why doesn't it show any films?

Peacock in the UK has no films, and almost no other content: I recently listed a total of twelve titles on there.

Almost all online sources referring to 'Peacock' are talking about the US version which is a full standalone subscription streaming service from NBCU (Comcast) : the UK version bundled 'free' by Sky has almost no resemblance to this, and appears to have essentially been abandoned by Sky/Comcast.

One clue is that online listings will often appear as ET, CT, MT or PT which are the timezones in the USA: there may also be reference to Sports content (including PL matches) with strange starting times.

I'd add that this confusion is not helped by the kind of sloppy journalism displayed in the Radio Times online listing, which, while technically correct, is entirely misleading.

It's time they binned Peacock UK, it no longer serves a purpose with such a minimal amount of content and all it does is create confusion.

Certainly not helpful when articles like that Radio Times piece can (correctly) state "Sky and NOW  customers are able to access Peacock at no extra cost" when writing about content not available in the UK/RoI/Germany/Austria...

Peacock UK essentially has been abandoned by Sky/Comcast,

Will be on Sky Cinema next year. Sky Cinema is the home of Universal, DreamWorks and Focus premieres along the deals with Warner Bros UK and Sony Pictures UK and shared deal with Paramount Pictures

I now have a devastated 12 year old, any other ways to stream it?

@Berni1979 

Given there's no UK release to television or online yet, that's not a topic for this forum.

Edit: as @caesarome indicates, it's on pre-order as a Sky Store Premiere at full price with no confirmed release date.

Incidentally, given the UK cinema release is rated BBFC 15 a 'devastated 12 year old' should really have three years to wait*: the PG-13 widely referred to online is the US rating and doesn't legally apply here.

*except, apparently, in Belfast
