    FFS Sky

    Not expecting much sympathy here...

    I couldn't watch Bathurst live, so set the Sky box to record it, arrived home 2 hours after it started, and watched the race with breaks for dinner, etc., fast forwarding when not much was happening.

    It was a long race, heavy rain, crashes and safety cars. So about 20 laps to go and the recording stops. No problem I thought, it will be on Sky Go. Nope, the recording there finished at the same time.

    Found extended highlights on YouTube. One of the great finishes.

    Thanks for the hint that it's on YouTube. YT kept telling me to watch the start, it still hasn't told me about the finish.

    I also started late and was skipping through the safety car bits and larko talking crap, it kept going to the end of the race but at some point before that it would no longer ffwd so I had to sit through lots of nothing happening to get there.

    The new sky box really is a bit crap, remote is stupidly slow to respond, and as far as I've worked out you can't tell it to start 1 hour into a recording like the old one did to skip the pre-drivel and get straight to the start of the event you want to watch.

    Made for a late night in the end.....
