Sky today unveils a free Sky Movies app
[http://corporate.sky.com/skyviews.htm ] for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad
which offers Sky TV customers a quick and easy way to find the movies they
love.

The new app brings users up-to-the-minute information about Sky Movies,
Sky Movies Box Office and the latest cinema releases, listing movies via

value for their subscription.

Each full page view of films currently available on Sky Movies includes

the Sky Go app to watch it live. The Sky Movies app offers top picks of the
day for Sky Movies content as well as information about what's coming up on
the service within the next week and next month. Movie trailers and reviews
can also be found on the app and an Android version will be available early
next year.

Ian Lewis, Director of Sky Movies said, "We are really pleased to be
able to add the Sky Movies app to our already strong offering of iPad and
iPhone apps. Combined with the Sky+ and Sky Go apps, customers now have even
more ways to discover and enjoy the films they want to watch, either at home
or on the move. We continually strive to give our customers the best
possible movie service and this is just one additional feature out of many
we have planned for Sky Movies over the coming months."
