Hi,
maybe your sky box has 'froze', try switching it off at the wall for a couple of minutes.0 -

JO4, the remote has failed then. Replace batteries and retest as suggested by basill0 -

Hi,
To perform a RESET press [TV] and then hold [select] and [red button] together for around two seconds (until the red light blinks twice). Now press 999 (red light blinks once for a long time and then twice quickly).
Hope this works for you.0 -

Different batteries do not make any difference.

A good bang sometimes help .......
Yup, always helps me
On a more serious note, I had this and nothing worked to fix it. I phoned Sky, they sent a replacement FOC.
Worth a try?I must go, I have lives to ruin and hearts to break
