    Typically they selected a load of old crappy films to show, don't get much for free ;) Half of those have been shown recently on other channels


    it is strange aint it, i would suppose that they are doing this to try and entice non subscribers to actually subscribe to the movie channels, you would think they would throw in a couple of blockbusters to show people what they would be getting, seeing that list of films certainly would not make me subscribe if i already didn`t
    Take every day as it comes!!

    Does that mean that everyone who has Sky can get to view Sky Screen 1 for free that weekend, not just HD viewers? Thanks.:T

    Afraid it looks like subscribers only.
  • The films playing this weekend are as per Martins post number 1.

    I wonder if you can record some on sky plus to watch at a later date?

    I wondered this and went over to the digital forums to find out and apparently you should be able to ;)

    Alas not, from my own experience, just before I cancelled my partner's full Sky subscription last summer, I recorded quite a few programmes, and just in the past week, when I returned to her place after several months away, these recorded shows would not play back as it showed I needed to be a subscriber to that channel in question...so I guess in your case if you are not a subscriber after that free weekend, you will not be able to watch these recorded shows...but you never know...

    On another note in the same vein, my partner got a phone call from Sky offering 20 quid a month just for Sky Sports, 3 weeks ago, but as I was not coming back for another couple weeks, she staved them off...and upon my return, she rang them, and was told that the offer was gone...and back to full price of 50 odd pounds...but she called their bluff and eventually, to cut the story short, got me Sky sports for the 20 quid a month!!!! No wonder I am going to marry her in Austria on Xmas Eve! :T
