On top of this, there are optional add-ons available for your package such as Sky Sports, Sky Cinema, TNT Sports, and Sky Kids. These add-on packs give you extra channels on top of your Sky Entertainment channels, either on an 24-month contract or on a 31-day rolling basis.
For Ultra HD (4K) viewing, there’s an optional Ultra HD & Dolby Atmos add-on. This will upgrade your viewing experience to 4K quality when you’re watching selected shows, documentaries, sports and movies. It applies to the Sky Entertainment, Sky Cinema and Sky Sports channels. Separate to this, you can upgrade your Netflix subscription to the Premium package for Ultra HD viewing.
There’s also an optional Ad Skipping pack and Whole Home add-on available for Sky Stream and Sky Glass.
How many channels does the Sky Entertainment package include?
According to Sky, there are “more than 150 live TV channels” in the Sky Entertainment package. However, a figure of 130 channels is probably more realistic for most customers.
In recent months, there has been a slight reduction in the total number of channels in the Sky Entertainment package. This is due to the closure of multiple channels such as TalkTV, E! Entertainment, 4Music, and The Box. As a result, there are now 130 individual channels available to customers with the Sky Entertainment package in England (as of September 2024). However, there are another 5 channels available to customers in Northern Ireland, and more than 16 different regional variations of BBC One. If these extra channels are also taken into account, it can be argued there are “more than 150 channels” available.
Sky Entertainment & Netflix Streaming
Alongside the live TV channels, you’ll get access to more than 30,000 shows to stream on-demand, whenever you like. This comes from three different places:
- Sky Box Sets. You’ll get access to the Sky Box Sets service. This allows you to binge watch entire series from across Sky’s television channels, including the latest US dramas from Sky Atlantic and Sky Max. You’ll also be able to stream exclusive Sky Original shows. See the latest shows and highlights on streaming.
- Netflix. There’s a Netflix ‘Standard with Ads’ membership included, giving you access to Netflix’s entire catalogue of shows and movies to stream on-demand. You’ll be able to stream in full HD quality as standard.
- Discovery+. You’ll get discovery+ Standard included at no extra cost with your Sky Entertainment package. This gives you access to exclusive box sets, documentaries, reality TV shows and sports. You won’t have access to the TNT Sports channels, unless you pay for an upgrade.
Apart from that, your Sky Stream box or Sky Glass TV will give you access to a range of other apps for on-demand streaming. For instance, you’ll be able to catch-up on recent shows through BBC iPlayer, ITVX and All4. You’ll also be able to stream from a range of other services like Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV+, Paramount+, YouTube, and more. A separate subscription may be required to access some of these services.

Doreen Eaton said:
Can you get +1 channels and can you record programmes?
Ken replied:
Hi Doreen,
Thanks for your comment. The +1 channels are not available on Sky Glass and Sky Stream. However, you can still catch-up on the show through the relevant on-demand service.
With regards to recordings, this isn’t technically available, although there’s a Playlist feature that gives you access to cloud-based recordings.
Hope this helps,
Ken
