We had a much brighter and warmer day today. Di had a planned phone call with Pauline (which was likely to run for hours). I had some admin to complete and then I looked at the latest news that most of the Olympic coverage was available on Discovery+ Premium. We have a D+ account - but to add Premium would be an extra £6.99 a month. I phoned EE... and an hour later I changed our existing package to include the sports channels and removed the Sky Cinema channels. As a result, we will pay £1 per month less than before. Seemed like a good deal as we never watch the Sky Cinema offerings. It should (have been) be active within 30 minutes.
I switched on the TV and tried to access the new channels. Nada. I would return to this, but first Di and I walked into the village so that she could collect her latest prescription. It was a pleasant walk in the warm (but not hot) sunshine.
I returned to the problem of getting the sports channels activated. I managed to get them on the iPad, but couldn't ripple it through to the TVs. I phoned EE again. After about an hour or so and discussions with 3 specialists, they decided to push a software update to our box. Finally, everything clicked and the sports channels burst into life.
I heard from Trevor - they had watched an episode of Ted Lasso. That was enough to encourage them to subscribe to Apple TV. Quite right too.
