Blow to Sky viewers as beloved TV feature vanishes – as devastated telly fans brand change ‘hostile'
SKY customers were left astonished after a beloved TV feature vanished in a huge blow to the viewer's experience. The company's decision to remove the feature will impact the user experience going forward. 4 The beauty of a TV guide is soon to be a thing of the past for Sky viewers, after the section on the website has been removed. Change to the Sky user experience Viewers started noticing a change to the website on June 18, when the usually obvious and simple to use TV guide, no longer appeared on the website. What's more, others realised that after using their pre-saved link to the page, automatically redirected to a different landing page. As a result, viewers are no longer able to see what is upcoming in Sky's programming schedule. For many, the website TV Guide or EPG (Electronic Programme Guide) was a useful feature for viewers wanting to plan what they watched without impacting their TV-watching experience or needlessly turning their tele on. Days of frustration ensued, with countless messages in community chats, the viewers questioning went unanswered. Finally, on June 20, a Sky community manager explained to the disgruntled viewers the reason behind the decision. 4 He said: "We want to confirm that the TV guide feature has been discontinued. "We understand this may be an inconvenience, you can find alternative ways to browse and discover content via your Sky Box, Sky Stream, Sky Glass, Sky Go and other parts of the website." Viewers deem it a hostile change But at what first felt like a user error or a website issue, Sky viewers are now left befuddled by the decision to remove the feature. Members of the Sky Community were quick to share their thoughts, with one user writing: "Who's stupid idea was it to get rid of the TV guide? WE WANT IT BACK!" Another said: "Was the online EPG hurting anyone or getting in the way? No, it wasn't. 4 "Was it a useful tool used by many on a daily basis? Yes, it was. Quite literally one of the stupidest decisions made by Sky in recent years." A third shared their frustration: "Not a great move, especially when it feels super hostile to those who still watch linear TV." It is a sentiment shared by long-standing Sky viewers, who had become accustomed to using the feature to enhance their watching experience. Big change at Sky The removal of the website EPG is just one in a long line of changes that viewers have had to deal with in a massive TV guide shake-up. Sky recently decided to permanently close down two beloved TV channels, with viewers only given until July 1 to come to terms with the change. 4 It follows the addition of eight new live channels to Sky's service, as well as a series of name changes to major channels and the move of 31 channels in April. The removal of the website EPG, therefore, only adds to the confusion felt by viewers who can no longer use the feature to discover the new programming released by the provider.

From cold-brew coffee makers to hot weather essentials: what you loved most this month
The Filter's bestsellers often tell a story. This month, it's that, in this era of global heating, extreme weather in our summers is here to stay. Despite the hottest spring on record, the ferocity of June's heatwaves seemed to take many of us by surprise, with much-needed fans going out of stock almost as soon as we'd published our group test. The Guardian's journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. Your desire for quiet tower fans and cold-brew coffee hints at sweaty, sleepless nights, followed by intense cravings for caffeinated cold drinks (or was that just me?). But also among your favourites were things that showed a sense of excitement about holidays, festivals and, more surprisingly, wildlife, with one-shouldered holiday swimsuits, wildlife-capturing cameras and the ideal festival handbag all capturing your attention this month. Dreo Cruiser TF518 £94.99 at Amazon It's no surprise to see a fan top the list in a month of extreme heat – and, as veteran tech journalist and engineering graduate Caramel Quin grimly points out in our roundup of the best fans, 'there will always be another heatwave.' Quin put 14 to the test, measuring everything from wind speed to energy efficiency, to find the most sustainable and effective. At full blast, this Dreo tower fan 'felt positively windy and was definitely cooling on a hot day,' she wrote, while the lower settings were so quiet that they weren't audible. Las Flores swimsuit From £55 at John Lewis 'John Lewis tells us that this one-shouldered swimsuit has been a huge hit,' said fashion editor Jess Cartner-Morley in her June style essentials. 'Customers love it because the shoulder detailing and sturdy, non-transparent fabric make it perfect for wearing as a top, so it does double duty on holiday.' Plenty of you have been packing it for your holidays, too. Operan cordless oral irrigator £35.66 at Amazon 'From the suspiciously low pricing, I was sure there would be something to complain about with the Operan cordless oral irrigator,' wrote our resident teeth-cleaner, Alan Martin, in his roundup of the best water flossers. 'But mouthful of a name aside, there really isn't.' While there's no evidence that water flossers are as effective as interdental brushes or manual flossing, the convenience factor means they can be useful for those of us who struggle to floss every day (if my dentist is reading this, this obviously doesn't include me). BaByliss Air Power Volume hot brush £59.99 at John Lewis It's always a surprise when something we wrote about in a previous month makes it into the best-sellers list for the first time. Could it be because the price has dropped by £4? Or because wedding season is now in full swing? Either way, our reviewer Lise Smith loved this bargain BaByliss in our roundup of the best hot brushes. 'This is a well-designed wet-to-dry air styler for less than £100 that delivers results comparable to some of the more expensive brushes on our list,' she wrote. Unisex Donkey Gloves £15.95 at Amazon Still not finished your pre-summer garden tidy-up? You're not the only one: these gardening gloves were your favourite pick in our Father's Day gift guide. 'The faux-leather fabric offers the dexterity needed for fiddly tasks and protection against brambles and nettles,' wrote Charlie Allenby, 'while still being comfortable enough for a long day in the garden.' Men's white crew neck T-shirt £14.90 at Uniqlo Sometimes, classics are classics for a reason. 'Everyone should own a well-fitting crisp white T-shirt, particularly when the warmer months hit,' said stylist and menswear expert Peter Bevan in his 50 men's summer wardrobe updates. This £14.90 crew neck T-shirt was your favourite pick from the piece, ahead of less classic ideas such as wearing boxers as shorts a la Paul Mescal (although that wasn't far behind …). Maxdone wildlife camera £39.97 at Amazon This camera can 'transform any garden into the setting of an Attenborough-style wildlife documentary,' says Allenby, and this appealed to our Planet Earth-loving readers. Capture stills and 4K video of 'songbirds, squirrels and scraggly foxes' – or just watch next door's cat digging up your planters. It's also £20 cheaper if you're a Prime member. Philips L'Or Barista Sublime £59.99 at John Lewis As with the BaByliss, we were surprised at the sudden popularity of this Nespresso-compatible L'Or machine this month. But it was immediately obvious why: its price has dropped by more than 40% since we first reviewed it. This is our resident coffee aficionado Sasha Muller's favourite capsule machine – even at its previous higher price – from our roundup of the best coffee machines. The Barista Sublime 'looks great and works well', he wrote, praising its compact dimensions, how easy it was to use and the choice of 100+ types of capsule. Guinness Nitrosurge starter pack £45.27 at Amazon Chosen by food and drink writer Joanne Gould as one of the best tinned drinks, the Nitrosurge also proved a hit for many in our Father's Day gift guide. The USB-charged nozzle can be attached to a chilled can of a special version of Guinness to pour a slower, smoother pint. 'It's creamier, has a more admirable swirl in the pour, and may even taste better,' said Gould. 'It could be my imagination, but I appreciate the ritual for improved pints in the park.' This Works Perfect Legs gradual tan £33.60 at This Works We're all aware of the importance of good sunscreen these days, but that doesn't mean we don't want a tan. Beauty writer Danielle Wilkins 'spritzed, sprayed and slathered' herself in more than 20 self-tan products over five weeks to find the best fake tan products, choosing this formula from This Works as her favourite gradual tan. 'The sumptuous, premium-feeling formula absorbed quickly and left my skin feeling soft and velvety as it dried,' she wrote. Cold-brew bottle £30 at Grind 'Summer is cold brew season,' wrote Charlie Allenby in our Father's Day gift guide – and many of you agreed. 'Simply add your ground coffee of choice to the glass bottle's internal filter, fill with cold tap water, put in the fridge overnight and wake to smooth, aromatic perfection.' The perfect drink for hot summer mornings. Round mini shoulder bag £14.90 at Uniqlo In our ultimate festival kit list, Glastonbury super-fan and Filter researcher Lily Smith recommended this bargain of a shoulder bag – and it was your favourite pick in the article, too. 'These bags from Uniqlo are a Tardis,' she said, 'from experience, you can fit a small water bottle, a power bank, sunglasses, phone and a bottle of sun cream in one.' Three of us on the Filter team are packing it for Glastonbury – and we'll be keeping an eye out for our readers wearing these in the wild. Going on holiday soon?

Charlotte Tilbury reveals one of the biggest makeup mistakes people make
The beauty landscape is undergoing a significant transformation for summer 2025, as the era of heavy makeup gives way to a lighter, more ethereal aesthetic. Gone are the days of intense blush, ultra-skinny brows, and dazzling diamante eye looks that defined 2024, with these fleeting trends predictably failing to endure. Instead, the focus has pivoted towards an effortless freshness, championed by leading makeup artists. This season sees a strong emphasis on natural eyes, subtle frosted finishes, and the growing integration of skincare within cosmetic products. The shift signals a move towards enhancing natural beauty with a delicate touch. Tinted SPF Any dermatologist will tell you that the best thing you can do to prevent skin laxity and wrinkles isn't Botox, but daily SPF. However, sun creams have traditionally been either too oily, too chalky or too white to wear every day or sit comfortably under makeup. This is why virtually every makeup brand is now releasing its answer to the problem: tinted SPFs. 'One of the biggest makeup mistakes I see is people not wearing SPF under their make-up,' says Charlotte Tilbury, the CCO and founder of her namesake brand. 'It is so important to wear SPF every day, even when it is not sunny outside, which is why we created the UV flawless poreless primer.' 'The rise in popularity of K-beauty this year has had an influence on our summer makeup trends. There is a lot of emphasis on skincare and 'skinimalism',' says celebrity and Strictly Come Dancing make-up artist Ariane Young. Tinted SPF, she explains, allows for 'minimal coverage [and] evens out your skin tone while also giving a hydrated glowy look.' Compared to BB or CC creams, tinted SPF is lighter and lends itself to the growing appetite for low-effort beauty. 'If you love that 'no makeup, makeup' look,' Ms Young says, 'a tinted SPF is your best friend.' And unlike most bases, the more you wear it, the better your skin will look, preventing pigmentation and redness. Cool-toned eyes A nostalgic nod to early-2000s shimmer is making its way back into our makeup bags. Icy whites, sheer lavenders and frosted blues are back, only this time they're less Paris Hilton and more Hailey Bieber. 'While icy, cool-toned eyeshadows were incredibly popular back in the late nineties and early Noughties, they were often chalky, hard to blend and unforgiving,' explains Ms Tilbury. 'We don't want it to look like the Tin Man!' says Ms Young. 'The trick is to pick a focal point to avoid going too frosted with everything.' A single frost-toned eye against matte skin and a neutral lip keeps the look more mature. 'Blend and diffuse the colour all over the lid so you have a light wash of colour,' says Ms Young. If you're not confident with eyeshadow, 'you can always add a pop of colour with a fun eyeliner colour. This trend is all about having fun with make-up and is perfect for festival season'. If you're not used to icy tones, 'there are ways of incorporating cooler-toned make-up into your everyday staples by swapping out your warm eyeshadows and gold glosses for greyer inspired shades', explains MAC Cosmetics senior make-up artist for the UK and Ireland, Carly Utting. 'This may sound scary if you're used to bronzes and warm tones, but a balance of both works wonders!' She loves pairing a cool-toned lipliner with a honey lipstick in a nod to the '90s. Ghost lashes Subtle and almost imperceptible, the ghost lash has emerged as this summer's biggest trend. Wearing makeup without mascara may spark fear in most, but thick coats of mascara and showy falsies are no longer the go-to. Makeup artist Mira Parmar describes it as 'a minimalist, no- mascara or barely-there lash look', one that's become a red carpet favourite for celebrities like Zendaya, Sophie Turner, Hailey Bieber and Lily-Rose Depp. 'This effortless style gives your lashes a much-needed break from heavy products, looks naturally elegant, and saves time, making it a perfect match for the 'clean girl' aesthetic,' she says. But this isn't simply a fleeting fad, as Ms Parmar says. 'It's more than just a trend, it marks a shift toward natural beauty and skin-first makeup, which is rooted in authenticity, minimalism and self-care.' Crisp, hyper-lined lips are out, and the messy, diffused, French girl lip is in. 'Creating the perfect lip shape is out, instead [people are] going for a more blended and blurred lip line,' says Ms Young. 'There's a move towards a sheerer coverage plumped lip, enhanced by liner and filled with just gloss,' says Ms Utting, who says natural lips with a slight sheen is a trend 'growing at a rapid rate'.
