Two beloved TV channels are closing down on Sky in just DAYS amid fresh schedule shake-up
SKY customers are days away from the permanent closure of two beloved TV channels. It's part of a massive TV guide shake-up that was rolled out throughout April. India Today, available on Satellite channel 523 will end its broadcast permanently on July 1. And Music India, which customers can access on channel 711, will also cease operations on the same day. The former - a popular news channel - launched in May 2023 and coincided with the general election in India. India Today's sister channel, Aaj Tak, will continue to be available on Sky, channel 710. BOLD PREDICTION It comes after one TV expert said it is "unlikely" Sky will ever release a new satellite product. Paolo Pescatore, an expert for PP Foresight, told The Sun it is "highly unlikely" Sky will ever release a new satellite box "given the investment and timescales with the TV switch off that's around the corner". Last year, Sky signed a contract extension with satellite operator SES that takes the service up to 2029. "Ultimately Sky would prefer to migrate all users onto its IP based products which in turn will lead to the end of Sky Q," Paolo said. "It is reliable, robust and serves customers needs. "They do not want to buy another telly with Sky inside for now." SKY CHANNEL SWAPS IN APRIL SO FAR Here's the full list of Sky channel swaps in April so far...

Divers search water for Fraser Coast man missing at Boondooma Dam
The search for a Fraser Coast man missing at a dam in Queensland's South Burnett has entered its second day. The 74-year-old was last seen in an inflatable dinghy on Boondooma Dam in Proston, about 340 kilometres north-west of Brisbane, about 5:45am on Thursday. The dinghy was spotted with its motor still running close to the dam's shoreline about 9:15am. A search and rescue operation is underway with the assistance of the State Emergency Service (SES), dam personnel and aerial assets. Inspector Scott Stahlhut from the Queensland Police patrol group said a large search was being conducted on the shoreline of the dam and in the water. "Today we've deployed our dive squad, and we're using sonar technology at the present time in an effort to locate the missing gentleman," he said. "There is a chance that this gentleman may have made it to shore. "We're keeping our options open and we're hoping for the best outcome." Police believe the missing man regularly visited Boondooma Dam and was fishing in the Little Cove section when he went missing. Inspector Stahlhut said locals had been assisting in the search. "Those that did have appropriate craft and water vessels did assist [on Thursday] and are assisting today as well," he said. "There's a lot of coves and a lot of areas where people actually visit for recreational purposes." The man was last seen wearing a blue jacket and dark coloured pants. Anyone with information is urged to contact police.
