Suprised that Freeview channel Pick TV is not available on now and next live channels, as I understand it is Sky content so would think it was easy to include .
Other than that UKTV play would be a good addition for apps.
One more idea is since Now TV parent company has shares in Roku and share hardware it is a pity Roku cannot sell or provide a app to allow use of the Roku services via the Now TV box. I appreciate Roku Box's cost more hence why I suggested a one off purchased app or monthly subscription app. I own a Roku 2 ( headphone through remote version ) and yes Now TV app is available on Roku service. The point of getting a Now TV box was to enable another TV for demand services and give Now TV on my Roku box in case anyone wonders why.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Anonymous User
Pick doesn't just show sky content. It actually owned by sky and is sky's free to air channel.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pick_%28TV_channel%29
The channel is used mainly to show content that has become Free to air due to its age. There's also a few new things as well, such as Z Nation.
The nowTV service is intended to show paid content not free to air content and so does not include freeview channels . There may also the some technical reasons why pick isn't available on nowTV, but I won't go into that here or I will probably make you fall asleep
