Is there a quick way of finding what films are still showing on Sky?

Have about 25 films on my Sky+ box (takes me ages to get round to watching some of them) and am moving to HD.

Trying to watch / download ones on to DVD that are not going to be shown again - others I'll re-record.

What's the easiest way of seeing if they'll be on again?

One way I can think of is that all the films showing this month are listed in the a-z format throughout the movies magazine that comes in the post.

It only shows this month but that will buy you some time!

Cheers - though just finished doing that and still have 13 films.

Some recent-ish ones War of the Worlds, The Machinist, House of Wax and King Arthur - would be nice to see some of these in HD!

The Sky Movies website always lists the last screening dates of movies, so if it's not in that list you've at least got until the start of the next month to catch films again.

Try

http://www.sky.com/portal/site/skycom/tvlistings

use the search function for all of the titles in one go i.e. enter
"War of the worlds" "The Machinist" etc

it will return all of them that are playing over the next week, and you can use remote record to add them to your planner.
