SKY planned EPG shuffle has occurred

Sky have now completed the promised Electronic Program Guide reshuffle. It occurred at around 05:30 this morning.

Although the seven-category split was more than sufficient when Sky launched its digital service in 1998, the number of channels has exploded in recent years. As a result, an increasing number of channels have been launched into inappropriate categories – particularly in the ‘entertainment’ section – while an even larger number have found themselves hidden away in the depths of the guide.

"These enhancements are designed to improve navigability for viewers and to assist Sky to meet continued demand for EPG slots," said a Sky spokesperson. "Better signposting will help make it easier for viewers to find the programme and channels that they want to watch."

A full list of the new channel lineup can be found on the forum.
