Sky adds viewing-reminder option from trailers

[Bob Crabtree]

Set reminders from a programme trailer

Millions of people can now instantly add programmes to their Personal Planner or Sky+ Planner from programme trailers. The new upgrade means viewers watching a trailer for a movie or show they don't want to miss can add a reminder at the touch of a button.

A 'set reminder' icon appears on selected promos - pressing the green button will automatically add the programme to the viewer's planner.

Sky+ customers can turn the reminder into a recording by highlighting the programme in their Sky+ Planner and pressing the 'R' button.

This new feature is free and available to all 8.1million customers.
