Vent - Sky tv showing Dallas out of sequence

Sky tv is showing a re-run of Dallas from the very beginning of series 1 and also Dynasty from the beginning.I know I am sad watching them but I used to love them years ago and have been watching them. However, Sky are supposed to be showing them in order but they are getting a few episodes shown out of order. I have tried to complain online but I cant find anywhere to complain to and did send a letter off complaining but so far have not received any response. I doubt anyone else will complain and I doubt my letter will be answered, but I dont want to let this matter drop. Does anyone know who is in charge of programme showings and responsible for showing them in order?
Just about to give up!

  • The only channel currently showing Dallas is CBS Drama, which has nothing to do with Sky. So complaining to Sky would be pointless as they have no control over what CBS show.

  • Don't know about sky but with Virgin Media sometimes if you switch the box off at the mains and back on again it comes back in sync.

    if you record the whole series then watch them, wouldnt they be in order then? or at least you can see which order to watch them with the synopsis written?

    they won't come back in sync just by switching your box off and on again. No amount of switching on an off will get a TV network to change what days they show a programme.

    I'm guessing they got the wrong end of the stick ;)

    And I'm also guessing this person doesn't have a recorder to record them and watch in the correct order.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: This made me laugh! I got an image of someone switching their box on and off yelling, "Play episode 3 damn you!"

    It's worth a try? My sky box goes a bit funny if you don't reset it for about three weeks :D
