Ah, did it also work once you had done a search?

Didn't for me and took me back to the original tv guide I think.

Just to clarify:

I,
1.  logged into my sky

2.  went to the link
http://mysky.sky.com/portal/site/skycom/tvguide/tvlistingsalternate

3.  chose a channel like lifestyle and culture.
4.  chose a day
5.  p[pressed view your chosen day
5.  selected the channel I wanted.
7.  selected the programme I wanted,
8.  selected remote record.

9. got the confirmation and hit the back button on the site to get back to the main channel. This is a graphic link with some alt text so the letter g
should work in latest jaws versions to get to this.

Still did exactly the same thing for me and took me back to the normal  tv
guide. I'll try emptying all my history, temp files etc first see if that
helps.

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.
