Maybe they will close Sky 2 instead of SyFy, and either move SyFy to the current Sky 2 EPG slot, or have a bit of a reschuffle so that it's a bit higher up.

I think Sky 2's days are numbered, and it's only a matter of time before it's closed down.

We've been saying that for years, but it seems to have more lives than a litter of feral cats.

I’d say it’s likely that Sky Two has been on death row longer than what Men & Motors was.

I wonder how they'll abbreviate Sky Documentaries to fit in the EPG. Just Sky Docs perhaps?

It would probably be easier if Sky just updated the EPG so channel logos were on show instead of channel names, like on other services or their online TV guide.

I think UKTV Documentary was abbreviated as 'UKTV Docs' on the Sky EPG.

Sky Docs - sounds like a new medical drama channel!!!

It's strange that the Sky Documentaries logo is so similar to Sky Witness, with the same black and white design... there are so many other colours that they could have used.

I suspect that they just haven't chosen the colours yet for Sky History & Sky Documentary.

Sky Nature will surely be green, or teal or a gradient of some sort. History or Docs could be purple and orange, two colours they never seem to use on their main channel brandings.

If the picture below is correct then sky nature will be green leaves.
