Sky / US Writers strike   
I am missing my regular diet of new US drama.
Now it looks like series will be suspended until autumn at the earliest.

Every channel on my basic 22 quid subscription seems to be showing repeats.

Has anyone asked sky to suspend their subscription or do I have to cancel?

Just cancel. I've found myself watching nothing but Freeview channels 
lately apart from the odd show on Discovery which I can't justify £21 a 
month for so as soon as Freesat is launched, I think I'll be jumping to 
that as a PVR (Sky) is just so damned useful.

lately apart from the odd show on Discovery which I can't justify £21 a
month for so as soon as Freesat is launched, I think I'll be jumping to
that as a PVR (Sky+) is just so damned useful.

I think that I'll do that
It seems unfair that sky are saving a fortune on their costs and not passing 
anything on.
