Angry Sky Sports 3

Can someone please explain why we get Front Row appearing on SKY SPORTS 3 between 03:00 and 07:00, when the EPG clearly states that the channel (Sky Sports 3) is still on air?

No its not 24/7 it appears after going to the sky website that the hours vary day to day - the info i gave you funnily enough was from a sky mag we get given each month !! You are correct that they did broadcast all night last night though

Re: Sky Sports 3

Strange... I have checked with someone in faults and they checked somewhere else and there was not a problem as far as we know on this... I am not the most technical minded person so I don't really know why this can/does happen!! Did anyone else experience this problem last night?

and your initial posting was correct, in that it stated the standard hours, and followed that with 'hours may vary', as they have for some time when there is additional sport to show.
