GR8 britain Vs the World PPV question

[sweetscience]

id have to order my PPV via the phone & not the remote (cause i dont have a landline)

so is that right then... you cant record it ?

[palooka]

Can't you remote record it via Sky.com?

[palooka]

That's pretty crap BIGMARK, hope you sort it out; (I'm still defrosting after -10C this morning; every cloud eh? )

THis is one long show and due to fact i have kids i wont be able to stay up for the Vegas Khan part of the bill. I order my PPV via the phone so cant SKY+ it and was wondering if the re-runs on the sunday will start with the the Vegas stuff before Liverpool/Germany bill? As good as it will be to see Paul, Frankie and Bomber winning in style againi would prefer to watch the Khan fight on delay with my cornflakes
cheers

Can't be 100% sure, as I usually don't bother with the repeats of these box office shows, but from what I have seen they open them with the main event first. I'd be very surprised if they don't judge Khan as the main event so I presume he will be on first, then Klitschko v Chisora and Smith v DeGale. Then they will fill the 3 hours with extremely brief undercard highlights.

Is there no way you can order the PPV through your box and then sky+ it? It's my sisters 18th that night so I'm sky+'ing it and watching it all the next day.

I always record the PPV's (I order the fight through the remote), so unless they've changed anything, but the fight does auto-delete after a few weeks.

Recording off Primetime is a totally different kettle of fish, it just froze my Sky box

i'm pretty sure you can only record it if it's ordered through the remote

yes. my phone line was down for the froch fight so ordered via mobile....recieved it no probs but my box went spastic every time i tried to record it.

There are ways and means to record if you phoned up the PPV. Just google it.

A couple of times I thought that Primetime had killed my telly. The only way to get it going again was to unplug everything then turn it all on again.

The sky + in my place dosent work and I'm away saturday night. The ppv page on the sky menu says the it can be viewed at 9am on the Sunday, have you got to watch it at 9am on the Sunday or can you select it any time that day? As I won't be back till lunchtime

[ourkid1984]

The last few PPV's I've had to watch on the repeat have shown the event as it would of been live. It's a shame that you can't record without a phoneline I've had to avoid any communication until the next day when I've watched the repeat on many occassions, I've only just managed to get a phone line installed which is more expense.

Well its not something Sky want us to do and as such don't want to get the forum into trouble with promoters.

There is normally 3 showings through the day, the question i want to know the answer to Is? will they re-run the whole thing with Khan fight last or will they stick Khan on First?

Look up, I've already answered.

but that's you opinion i want to know for sure

Fucks sake, you aren't gonna get that on here, are you?

Some people are so ungrateful.

[orbtastic]

The subsequent re-runs are condensed down into 3 hour slots. As the last SKY PPV was. It's on the EPG, just check.

I can ensure you i am up far from ungrateful kind sir
I just remember the the night of the Oscar-Pacman fight which was a PPV with the Uk Khan bill and when it came to the re-run i had to sit through the whole card again before i got to the Pacman fight.

I hope your right but it doesnt give Sky much time to edit and put it together when the Khan fight will finish around 5am and the first re-run is 9am.

Nah, to be honest it won't be that hard. The Khan fight will take the best part of an hour first up, unless he gets caught flush on the chin and goes down. They'll probably show all the Klitschko v Chisora and Smith v DeGale fight, then pad the 3 hours out with undercard fights if needed. They'll have people working on it as the night goes on, so no need to worry.

EDIT: And sorry if i came off as being a bit harsh. The answer I gave is probably the best you'll get, unless the exceedingly unlikely event of someone from sky coming on here and confirming it-but they are all busy with other stuff this weekend, natch.

Is this definitely the case for this weekend though as it still just says 9am on my sky tv guide?

[Krystell]

According to the Sky Box Office website there will be three-hour repeat shows on at 9am, 1pm and 7pm on the Sunday.

Do you have to either buy the live event or the repeat though? Only when I ordered the fight that shall not be mentioned last month they asked if I wanted the live showing or the repeat?
