Yes. f***ing annoying. Used to appear once and that was it. Now have to dismiss it repeatedly. Reduces the brightness of the picture if you leave it there.

Pressing 'back up' on the remote clears it. But it will reappear following an advert break. Other way is to pause the TV for 20 seconds, it wont work on paused or pre-recorded shows.

On my Sky it is appearing roughly every 10 minutes. Thanks for the pause tip.

Edit: I suspect this is a deliberate change as it disappears if you leave it for about 20 seconds. God knows who thought that was a good idea.

I don’t want to be reminded I can Recap & Datazone every 5 mins. Probably an ocd thing !
It caused us consternation today. What a load of 'get involved' old bollocks. Pandering to bored teenagers. Burn them. BURN THEM!

It was a focus group.

Excellent if you tune in after the start of the game, you can press the red button and watch any goals or major incidents you have missed.

But if you have been watching from the start, it;s not much of a problem as disappears fairly quickly.

Wasn’t there a story somewhere that a pub had tippexed a pint glass in the corner of their TV screen to make out they had the business Sky subscription in case anyone question it?
if not their should be, bloody brilliant idea.

Not today. They have started flashing it back up throughout the game.

My Sky+ has started to show the program info just as a commercial break comes up even on recorded shows. All started about a week ago. Does mean I know when to fast forwards though.
