I missed New Tricks BB1 9pm Mon 29/9 Episode 7. Looking on Catchup/Sky, there is Episode 6( + earlier ones) to watch,, and E Ep 8 to 'remind'.
So where is Ep 7 ?? How long do you need to wait for it to 'appear' as an option ?
Don't use Catchup often, but previously (certainly ITV), it is available the next day (if not, the same day/hour, I think)
?
Thanks

It is available on the BBC Iplayer website now. Don't have Sky catchup so can't comment on that platform.0

Mmmm strange... It IS on BBC1player when I select that, but is NOT, on Catchup TV. Don't know why that is.0

Catchup seems to be 'instant', whereas IPlayer 'downloads'. 10mins so far to download 7% !0

Probably because the BBC would prefer you to view it using iPlayer, so there is a delay before they allow Sky to put it on their catch up service.
Some shows do appear to be tardy in appearing on other platforms, but the vast majority appear simultaneously often within hours of the programme being broadcast.0 -
It takes a long time to download on Iplayer. I bet it was 10+ mins to download 1 hr !0

I thought you were saying the programme wasn't available at all?0 -
If you wanted to watch the programme that quickly, just set series record so this doesn't happen again.0

On Sky downloads from On Demand, the programme becomes "available" to watch as soon as the download buffer has filled up enough. This is usually within a few minutes (or less).
but that's just it, it wasn't0
