Just been informed that if you purchase the 9.00pm live event you will not be able to simultaneously record the show to your Sky+ box which is total crap if you ask me !
So no nipping in the bath, to the pub or whatever and then resuming the action.
More fiddling by Sky if you ask me.

Maybe, but I think 'live pause' only lasts for a maximum of 1 hour.

They only charge you the fee if you either watched or recorded it. If you watched it, even for just a second they will charge you.
They have methods of checking unfortunately.
