Bored of watching the same old channels and already binged on every Netflix box set? Sky might have the solution thanks to a nice freebie for millions of its users. The satellite telly firm is currently dishing out full access to the Hayu streaming platform without wanting the usual premium subscription fee.

That means you can watch shows such as The Real Housewives, Million Dollar Listing, Below Deck and Vanderpump Rule and not pay a penny for the privilege.

The incentive lasts for three months so there's a total savings of £14.97 to be made by signing up as Hayu is usually priced at £4.99 per month.

If that sounds enticing, all you have to do is make sure you are part of the Sky VIP programme - then simply grab your remote, press the voice search button and say "Sky VIP Hayu”.

Don't worry if you hate using voice activation as you can also via their set-top device or through Sky Marketplace.

Sky says it has launched this limited-time promotion to celebrate Hayu arriving on popular Sky Q devices - it was only available on newer Sky Stream and Sky Glass TVs until recently.

"From 9 April, all Sky customers can get Hayu for 3 months included with their Sky package at no extra cost," Sky confirmed.

"The limited-time offer is provided by Sky VIP to celebrate the launch of Hayu on Sky Q, following on from the earlier launches of Hayu on Sky Stream and Sky Glass."

The only thing you must remember is to set a reminder and cancel the subscription before the three months are up. If you don't you will continue to get access to Hayu but will also be charged the £4.99 per month fee.

Sky Q customers can find the Hayu app in the dedicated apps section of the UI and also through the voice remote by saying “Hayu” to launch the app.

This offer is available until 8 May 2024 so make sure you act now if you want those extra things to watch,
