    I recorded episodes 2 and 3 of the 3-part series Uncanny on one of the BBC channes. I had missed part 1 but then downloaded it from BBC on Demand in Catch up TV.

    It was in the planner for a maybe a week or two but when I thought to start watching the series I saw the downloaded part 1 wasn't there. It's not in Deleted either and it's gone from On Demand. Would Sky have deleted it?

    Its been a long time since I was with Sky , but it was always the case that material downloaded to watch was time limited , depending what it was you had about 24 hours to 2 weeks to watch it before it self deleted.

    I tried catch up tv just now and all the episodes are there. I can access without and it says wont be deleted until October 2024. Do a reboot, may help.

    Only episodes 2 and 3 are available on my BBC on Demand. Expire Sunday. Same after reboot.

    It's a Thompson box I think, black with the curved silver line/panel on the front.

    That's Uncanny. It just shows the episode names.
