Hi, I have two V6 boxes & neither of them are showing the new series of both 'Finding Alice' & 'The Bay' on ITV Hub, although they're frequently advertised as being able to watch all. It would be really handy to have these shows at the moment........Any help please????......Thanks.

Righto, we have a branding issue here!

There is the standard OnDemand programmes, which are branded as ITV-Hub when you play them - these have the standard 30day CatchUp available, and the first episodes of these dramas are indeed available on there.

If you use the ITV-branded app.. Home > Apps > All apps > ITV, the complete series are available for watching there if you don't want to wait for the broadcast showings.

The BBC are doing similar with many new series - broadcast slots with the standard CatchUp, and then the iPlayer shows the complete set before subsequent broadcast.

Got it......... .....Thanks.......

To avoid confusing viewers VM/ITV could rename the folder in Catch Up to just 'ITV' to distinguish it from the 'ITV Hub' app. It is what Channel 5 has done, with it listed as 'Channel 5' in Catch Up rather than it being 'My5' branded.

If this was purely VM's choice, that wouldn't necessarily be a bad idea. It may not be!
