Sky's rollout of its new EPG is just weeks away and it is bringing such sweeping changes to the guide that it is calling the redesign its 'iOS 7' moment.
At an exclusive journalist event in London, Sky's Stephen van Rooyen went through the big evolution of Sky's new main planner page and how it ties in with the growing focus in on-demand.
Forward features
Looking further forward, Sky also teased a number of future features that are set to arrive later this year - including a recommendation engine and also a perpetual season link.
The latter will make sure you record your favourite shows when they arrive back on television after mid-season breaks or for a new series, something that is set to be a popular arrival.
"I would like to 'fire and forget' on a series link and we're now going to create that - when you series link it will record all future series and that's a step forward for us," added van Rooyen.
"[Recommendations] are going to be on the homepage on the new tab down at the bottom. The series tab will promo the upcoming shows.
"The most effective way to do recommendations is by looking at what's on your planner."
