HI all.

I just got a call from sky today, and they have detailed an accessible work
around for the broken remote record feature accessed by the screen reader
version of the sky.com site.

Note:
You must be logged into my sky before you activate this link.

So log in at 

www.sky.com, by choosing my sky and typing in username and password.  Once
this is done, from your account page, go to:

http://mysky.sky.com/portal/site/skycom/tvguide/tvlistingsalternate

There you can select channel genre, day etc and select your channel as
normal when using accessible features.  Once you get to the prog you want,
hit the remote record link under programme options.  You will get a
confirmation message saying a remote record request will be sent within the
next thirty minutes.  From this, hit the back button just below the message,
or reactivate the link above to make a new search.  I can confirm this
works.

I'd recommend bookmarking this link so you can find it again.
