Sky doesn’t recognise christmas

Why cannot I use the question 'hello sky Christmas movies' on the search talk. You have a classification of Holiday movies but not Christmas movies. [Removed]

Sky is owned by Comcast who are very much an American company.

In the grand scheme of things, does it really matter?

The rebranding of channel 302 would disagree with the statement "sky doesn't recognise christmas"

 

Neither would the selection on the sky q homepage called "the Christmas advent calendar"

 

I also said "christmas movies" and "sky christmas movies" into my sky q,  and it brings up plenty of christmas movie to choose from (some odd ones too)

 

"Show me christmas movies" also brings up plenty of films.

It could be your accent. Sometimes accents confuse the system. My normal Dublin accent doesn’t always get picked up, but if I put on a thick Cork accent it understands me a lot better.

Also, on Sky Q: saying “Christmas movies” brings up Christmas movies, and “holiday movies” brings up films with “holiday” in the title.
