I'm looking forward to this tonight, although the frequency of the ad breaks on Sky Atlantic drives me nuts!


With the recent Broadwalk Empire series I found it best to record it on the Skybox and watch it later so you can fast forward all the ads or even pause it and watch it half an hour later so you can do the same thing.


With regard to copying to a dvd, this is perfectly legal, in fact, Sky tell you how to do it themselves - http://www.sky.com/helpcentre/tv/sky-plus-hd/recording/recording-with-sky-plus-hd/copying-recordings-to-vhs-tape-or-to-a-dvd/

Will Sky Atlantic be replaying the series, perhaps a few days later, or even ad nauseam, given that it is a pricey investment for them? I ask because I am thinking of getting Sky purely to be able to watch Mad Men and Game of Thrones but only would do so if I knew that I can catch the first episode again. (Sky says it can install within two days of booking, so it could be in by next week if I want it.)

    • A couple of updates to this terrible event:   1) In 2021, two cousins (one from Penge and one from Streatham) were convicted of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 23 years in prison. The Southwark News has a summary of the awful day. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/dulwich/donnell-rhule-dulwich-knife-murderer-cousins-sentenced-to-life-for-killing-18-year-old/    2) Last week, a female prison officer from Forest Hill was sentenced to eight months in prison for pursuing a relationship with one of the two murderers while at HMP Brixton. https://metro.co.uk/2025/12/15/probation-officer-admits-relationship-prisoner-hmp-belmarsh-25501445/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38203627/probation-officer-jailed-illicit-relationship-murderer-secure-prison/
    • The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.
    • She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck
    • Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!
