James Nesbitt reprises his role as Clayton, the London-based murder detective struggling to come to terms with his gambling addiction and still reluctantly wearing the lucky charm attached to his arm in series one.

Last week the two firms confirmed that 21st Century Fox, which already owns 39% of Sky, was seeking to take full control of the company.

The deal offers Sky Plc shareholders £10.75 per share in cash, less the value of any dividends subsequently paid by Sky, representing a 40% premium on the shares’ closing price as of Wednesday.

Offering stunning backdrop over the City, the new state of the art studio will be home to Sky News’ flagship business show, Ian King Live, and will also serve as a hub for the Sky News business unit.

Despite withdrawing Sky+ for all new customers, the firm is keen to stress its “continued investment” in the platform and says a new software update now being rolled out will put “great TV at the heart of the platform enjoyed by millions of customers and making TV viewing even simpler.”
