UKTV Play now requires an account to watch catchup on YouView.

As the thread title says, you now need to create an account to use UKTV Play on your YouView box. Didn't see that coming

If UKTV could give us UKTV Play yesterday without us signing up and revealing PII, then they could give it to us tomorrow in the same way; and as such, UKTV have no lawful basis for collecting that PII for any purpose.
I'll raise this with our Content team and get back to you once I have an update to share
Thanks for making us aware!
