Customers of Sky’s broadband-based Sky Glass and Sky Stream pay TV platforms may like to know that the provider has just added the new Xumo Play app to their platform, which offers an additional 70+ “free” streaming channels including Dateline, Reuters and American Classics.
In addition, Sky TV has also added six new Sky FAST (Free Ad-supported Streaming Television) channels at no extra cost, including Pick Paranormal, Emergency 24/7, Sky Artist of The Year, Sky Sports Stories, Sky Sports Classics and Sky Sports Vault – all will be home to a range of previously aired shows.
The new FAST channels will also be available on Sky Q “later this year” and integrated into the TV guide on Sky Glass and Sky Stream for seamless discovery.

Bit of a misleading headline as I think you have to be a paying Sky customer to access them, so they’re not in any way “free”?
Hence why Mark put “free” in quotation marks.
Sky Stream has also lost
903 904 & 905 UHD channels!
They have vanished from the EPG for some reason but if you key in 903 for example the channel is still there.
Also, when I went to Channel 404 for the Cricket it came up with an option watch in Ultra HD and switched to 903 for the UHD version
Guessing it’s ready for the “new” Sky Sports plus launch tomorrow!
