OT: Sky Sports at T5?
I'm flying out of T5 on Saturday morning and was hoping to watch the Lions game beforehand.
Does the FLounge have Sky Sports, or alternatively is there a bar that will be showing the game?
Many thanks in advance for any help.

It does, you can request staff to put it on. I think there's a TV on the outside bit too - I've definitely watched a football Play Off final on an outside one, but can't remember if that was the F Lounge or the CCR. Pretty sure it was the former and the staff gathered everyone that wanted to watch it there

[In case of an AUP!] In the CCR Board Room the TVs can be set by anyone in there. However if you talk to the duty BaxterStorey manager in CCR, or Borisz behind the bar, they will accommodate requests in this area. Usually the TV on the end of the bar will be showing either BBC News or sports events.
Pilots in South also shows big sport events, plus the Wetherspoons (The Crown Rivers) in North.

If you're heading to the GF terrace, the TV remote control is usually stored in a little pocket located behind the screen.
