Here are all the movers and shakers on Sky in July to familiarise yourself with and ensure you're not missing your favourite shows.
SKY CHANNEL CLOSURES Eight channels have disappeared from Sky this month - though not all of them have completely shut down.
Channel 4 has removed its SD (standard definition) broadcasts from satellite, so you can still technically watch via the HD one instead.
As we've reported, The Box music channels have now closed.
This includes The Box, Kiss, 4Music, Magic and Kerrang.
As the channels have closed down completely, they have disappeared from Virgin Media too.
Elsewhere, Inspiration TV and Dunya News have closed permanently.

Sky's Free Apple TV+ Offer SKY CHANNEL LAUNCHES While there's been an exodus of music channels, there has been a new launch to fill the gap.
NOW 90s and 00s has landed on Sky - but only on satellite for now.
NOW already has a number of music channels on satellite TV, including NOW 70s, NOW 80s and NOW ROCK.
You can find NOW 90s and 00s on Sky satellite channel 357 now.
SKY CHANNEL CHANGES As a result of all these closures and the new channel launch, there has been a shift in station numbers.
Notably, the NOW channels have taken up the spots left by The Box and co.
These only appear to Sky satellite, as NOW channels aren't available on Sky Glass and Sky Stream currently.
Aside from this, Sky has made its usual switch up on Sky Cinema, changing the name and theme of some.
