Here is a full summary of the faults on Sky1 tonight with Sky1 HD comparatives.

The single lines of black flashing make it look like a sync pulse fault. Since the sky payout facilities are probably embedded audio, that could also explain the audio breakup. Not sure why switching to a letterbox version would fix it unless it's an alternative output.

Not sure why the fault would be ongoing for so long though... surely they'd have backup spg in place!

I'm really surprised the CA is live. I thought all the sky family of channel's continuity was pre-recorded.


Are the CA's used on all Sky channels or do they have separate? I think I have heard a CA on Sky One & Living before they all relaunched?


LIVING's announcements were prerecorded (and played out by Red Bee) until the relaunch. Sky 1 is live I believe, so if there was the same announcer it was incidental.

No I couldn't see it.

I have re watched The Middle and noticed it all started when Sky took the break and played 'Dating in the dark' promo.

In the Simpsons promo, where viewers sat on a sofa outside and stated their favourite characters, the old Sky1 logo appeared.

I had forgotten that wasn't the logo and was looking for an older one because that promo must be from the sky Onc or the era before that
