SKY back in the late 80,s and early 90,s was absolutely amazing!! It was new,fun and incredibly intriguing. SKY as far as advertising and the balls to take the all or nothing stance blew BSB away!! And to be honest i think SKY deserve credit 👍🏻👍🏻📡
I used to love these idents. To see what was coming out and the longer ones where they talked about the films. Wouldn't work these days. The films aren't worth getting excited about.
Back when they put effort into the idents and promo material (sky movies showcase before the first film every day was great), and the big premiere was an event worth getting excited about. Sometimes less IS more!
I begged my dad for these subscriptions. But he only treated my occasionally with the monthly subscription. This was like a treasure chest in those days. If you had these 2 movie channels, you were a king. Now we can watch anything anywhere, and my dad doesn't care
God the money both Sky and BSB overpaid for movie rights trying to out do the other one and in the end it was Sports not movies that brought in the big bucks. And thirty years on like (UK) Gold, the same old movies pumped out and they still charge for it.
