Any Football League Show fans may be interested to know the IMG Media based studio seems to be featured in this Weight Watchers TV ad, albeit with a white coloured desk and chairs and the studio being lit blue.

No there is a non linear equivalent (on demand) of the rights Sky Sports have won.

Sky Sports scores more Premier League football highlights

Editor | 24-01-2013

BSkyB’s jewel in the crown is shining brighter as Sky Sports has been awarded more rights to English Premier League football.

The UK’s leading pay-TV company has secured a three-year agreement beginning from the 2013/14 season to show extended highlights of all 226 Premier League matches not shown live on television, plus goals and key moments for other programming.

From August 2013, Sky Sports will now offer a full 90-minute replay of the best Saturday 3pm match from 8pm that evening; a choice of 45-minute highlights from all Saturday 3pm fixtures, available via Sky’s interactive red button service at 10pm; and a round-up of all the goals and talking points from all Premier League matches shown throughout the week across Sky Sports and on Sky Sports News HD.

The coverage will be available across TV, mobile, online and tablet devices through Sky Go, while the Sky Sports app for iPad was recently upgraded, providing users with access to technology used by the channel’s analysts.

Commenting on the new deal Barney Francis, managing director of Sky Sports, said: "This is fantastic news for Sky Sports viewers who will continue to enjoy unrivalled coverage of the Barclays Premier League on TV and wherever they are with Sky Go. We’ll give fans the first chance to see extended highlights of all the matches every Saturday, as well as the key moments throughout the week. Add these rights to our 116 live matches from next season, which include Monday Night Football and Super Sunday double-headers, and Sky Sports truly remains the home of the Barclays Premier League."

Presumably there'll also be a Times branded version too?

Re the On-Demand rights, who currently holds those, or is this a new package?

Jacqui Oatley would have been my pick. She should certainly get a bigger presenting role in football at BBC Sport.
