UKTV Play: TV Shows On Demand 17+

I downloaded this for taskmaster which is extraordinarily funny and worth watching the odd advert for. You cannot, of course, insist your tv plays all episodes any time of day or night adverts or not. It just will not listen. Whatever you say it will punctuate any episodes with top gear or American pickers or storage hunters or antiques road trip or rick steins food orgy or two men in a shack or pickled Rodney dangerfield or cor blimey what a wizard or monkey tennis or cheese wars or Jesus in a flatcap or the life and times of billy bremner or defacing the greats or florist gauntlet or dremmamine slalom or Leopoldo blooms brand new shoes or once I wrote a best selling matchbook or drifting bin bags or red gurnards for shoes or spawning frogs or ten minute shoelaces or beetle sandwiches or beatle sandwiches or book spine chronicles or the reality wars or awful orbs or once I hosted a jam sandwich (police car) raffle or optimum level or wheelbarrow narratives or mike silvers lost ball bag or bargain hunt.

Just had to reinstall app, which had previously worked fine. When I started app after update, it asked if it wanted to scan the network for cast devices - I clicked okay and was presented with a white screen - totally in recoverable! On reinstall, I clicked “no thanks”and followed the prompts and it worked. Something is definitely awry; I’ve castable devices on another network, yet don’t necessarily think the app should completely crash if it can’t find any devices on the network it’s currently connected to!

Atrocious. If you want to watch endless puerile adds, this is the only app you need. More add time than program to watch. Starts with 5 mins of adds. Resume (if luck doesn't send you to the beginning again) gives 1 of 2 or 3 adds, programme flashes up for 1 sec, then you get 1 of 5 or 6 adds as well. 8 mins lost and watched nothing. Then you can watch only a few minutes of your program, until it reaches one of the fixed add points. Another 6 adds... what a joke. If the idiots who wrote the app, weren't so greedy for add money, they would use some positive psychology and let you watch 10 mins at the start without adds, to lure you in. All4 used to be like this, they learnt from the negative approach and made their app far more watchable. More viewers, more revenue... oh and don't try skipping forward to the place you were at, because you'll just get all the add points you skipped through playing multiplied by 5 or 6. 20 adds at once take your fancy?
