For UK viewers:  SKY has decided to delay this week's broadcast 24 hours.  The earliest viewing is Tuesday August 29 at 1am.  That's essentially Monday night if you stay up to 1am in the morning. 

I've spent 2 days on the phone with SKY and while the people I talked to where very friendly, none of them know why this decision was made.  We were receiving a broadcast a couple of hours after the US in the wee hours on Monday morning which we could stay up late for or record and watch when we liked on Mondays.  But with the 24 hour delay that can't happen this week.  Just thought I should let everyone know because it will also be important to avoid the forums for spoilers.

I have registered an official complaint with SKY and a request that this doesn't happen for the finale, for all the good that may do.

Any idea whether that applies to catch-up / iplayer as well?  I guess it will...

They are... Sky is much worse than HBO Europe. Why they don't have some "clones" channels to broadcast both TP and this stu... GoT simultaneously? And now that? What about commercial break?

I have to admit since they moved the screening time for an hour, even though I live in UK, I watch Twin Peaks via online stream of polish HBO...

I guessed that it would have started later due to game of thrones being a longer episode but I didn't think they'd moved it until the next day, that's an absolute piss take

Oh well, I ain't waiting longer than necessary.  I guess there are *ahem* other ways to obtain it sooner. 😉

I saw on Facebook that it'll be on demand at the usual time? If not yes, I will definitely go back to my old means of viewing, especially with Monday being a bank holiday.

Where did you see that on Facebook?  I'd love to check it out and possibly call SKY back to confirm.  They have a whole file on me regards this complaint : )

Um, am I allowed to ask how you obtain it sooner?  I don't know how but don't want to get anyone in trouble.

Please feel free to speak in Fireman-like riddles...

Also, since the sites in question are blocked by Sky, BT, TalkTalk etc, you will need to find a proxy.

mac.yxorpetarip

For example.
