Overview
- Sky Cinema Animation, which closed Thursday, has been merged into Sky Cinema Family on channel 304.
- EE told customers all films from both channels remain available on the combined Sky Cinema Family channel.
- Sky said the Animation feed will return as a temporary channel during school holidays, running July 24–August 30, October 23–November 1, and December 1–January 5.
- Some viewers reported electronic program guide and Series Link glitches after the change, which can break scheduled recordings until users reset them.
- Sky framed the consolidation as a way to bring family and animated movies into one place and reduce the number of separate linear channels.
