I watched this on Sunday night, 18/08/19 Channel 4, murder, kidnapping, French mystery.
When it ended, it was obvious that there was more to come, and the voiceover said that further episodes could be downloaded as a box set from All 4.
I’ve searched all over my Sky+ box for how or where to get these, to no avail.
Called Channel 4, they suggested that I contact Sky, to ask them to furnish a box set, and get it from them.
They also said that the first episode of No Second Chance was a one-off broadcast, and no further episodes are planned to be shown.
This seems strange to me, but what do I know, I’m just a viewer.

You may have, or as is my wont, I couched it badly, yes, I can watch subsequent episodes on a desktop, or iPad, but I wanted to watch them on a TV.
My son is a computer whiz, he’s rigged up a system whereby he runs a lead from a tablet to his TV, and watches stuff on the TV screen, I’ll prevail upon him, or his son, to walk me through it.
Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Definite wizardry going on there, keep an eye on that sort of thing, one minute it's using the TV as a monitor, next it's hacking into the FBI.

I think it’s a bit simpler than that, when I saw them using their “wizardry”, my grandson was watching an Arsenal game on his iPhone, and my son plugged an HDMI lead from the phone to the TV, and Shazam! the game came on the TV screen.
Oh, he did say that he had to buy some gizmo from the Apple Store to make it work properly too, Christ knows what, but he said that it was circa £30, I think.
 
I take it you havent got a new smart TV then. All4 isnt on Sky you have to get it either through your TV or from a computer If from a computer just get a HDMI lead between and set up your TV as a second monitor.

I see all 6 episodes on my TV.
 
ironically imhop there is some better quality drama on all 4 than any of the current sky entertainmnet stuff (after finishing gomorra I just cancelled nowtv)

profugios, Sr AVila, Spiral, Vanished by the lake, ... but, I will now have to try no second chance

Thank you Tony, if it wasn’t bad enough that the enemy is holding a gun to my head to have York flagstones laid on the garden patio, artificial grass put where the existing weeds and grass are now, a membrane to stop weeds growing, and a low raised wall built around the palm tree like thing at the end of the garden, I now have to consider a new TV, will I ever win?

You should know by now that life is a zero sum game. There is no winning. Just not losing as bad. ;)

Yeah Fire stick should do I think. There are attachments you can get for it aswell some leads or stuff.

Having my new TV is like switching from an old mobile to a smart phone with apps. I have everthing on there from BBC iplayer to Netfix and Amazon prime. Or Rainforest prime as some here like to call it.

What I found with the Sky box is the catchup doesnt have everything on there that the dedicated catch up on my TV has. More so with All4/More4 even the iplayer has more and its not using 700w or emitting dangerous levels of radiation/heat. Infact my tan has gone down slightly since swapping TVs. Sometimes I do have to get a spare blanket though.
