peacock launches on 16th November on Sky Q but not Glass

[Anonymous]

Tad unfair this on Glass customers, Peacock launches on the 16th November on Sky Q but not Glass. It will arrive in the early new year for Glass customers. 

I understand that BT Sport App will launch on the same date, but again only on Q. 

Peacock will not launch as an App but within the On demand section. BT Sport is an APP.

The ETA for Peacock on Glass is by Christmas.

Christmas/Early New year - potentially 7 days difference then

@Anonymous don't hold your breath for a high quality service as currently in the USA it is only available in SDR. No 4K, HDR or Dolby Atmos - unless Sky have something up their sleeve.

@Anonymous  Do you mind me asking where this information has come from? Thank you

@Jayboy1990 although technically still embargoed the information is correct according to our Sky sources. Glass will lag a bit on getting the new content with a role out due before Christmas - Sky has always frozen all upgrades over Christmas for a couple of weeks and I assume that wont change this year..

Suspect they are busy sorting some of the early issues  which is taking priority over new apps. .

Where did you see this sky would put a press release out if they were planning on dropping peacock tomorrow and I got told we are getting an app  it states on the internet  brian roberts said sky q and sky ticket sky + and glass etc will get an app  ad supported service which is premium   I think it's on a trial like discovery plus 12 months free then you pay if you want to keep it  coz it says its free sort of  not exactly free  well  dana strong hasn't mentioned anything it says mid November  🙈

@Anonymous  Have you managed to find the source yet? You posted the information then never followed up.

Sky have confirmed this date is correct (and that the launch on Glass is delayed slightly) in a private section of the forum.

Peacock content will still be available on Sky Go though, is that right? (I know it's not the same as watching on a big screen)

Not that I mind waiting for peacock on Glass, I don't think there will be much on it I'd watch, and I'd rather them focus on getting bug fixes sorted first. I'm not complaining, happy with Glass, just it will be better when everything works as it should, I'm happy to wait patiently. 👍
