It'll work just like the current red button content works on other channels currently

Red only brings up favourites when the mini guide is showing.

Flukie · 25-04-2011, 12:41

So is the red button supposed to be working now, then? Nothing happens when I hit mine.

Well it's obvious - sadly - what will happen here. The date will keep getting put back so we'll still be waiting this time next year, probably.
