Three Home Broadband in the Isle of Man - will I get charged?

My dad has Three Home Broadband at home in the UK, and he’s currently travelling around the Isle of Man in his motorhome.

I didn’t realise he’d taken the router with him, but he’s plugged it in over there and it’s working perfectly.

My worry is whether he’s going to end up with a huge bill. I’ve found some information online saying the Isle of Man is excluded from Three’s roaming charges, but it’s not very clear whether that applies to Home Broadband devices as well as phones.

I know Three’s terms say the home broadband is intended for use in the UK, so I’m surprised it’s working at all.

Does anyone know:

- If it’s working, does that mean it’s included and he won’t get charged?
- Or could it still be roaming in the background and generate a massive bill later?

Just trying to work out whether he needs to switch it off before he gets an expensive surprise!

Sky Glass sleep timer voice command not working?

I’ve got a Sky Glass TV and I’m trying to use the voice feature to set a sleep timer.

When I say:
“Set sleep timer for 30 minutes”

the TV either brings up a message telling me to say exactly that, or it says:
“I’m sorry, I can’t do that here.”

The on-screen message says to say “Set sleep timer for” and then choose 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours or 4 hours, but when I follow that wording it still won’t actually set the timer.
Has anyone else had this issue on Sky Glass Gen 1?

Is there a slightly different phrase I need to use, or is this likely to be a bug/software issue? I’ve tried variations like “set a sleep timer for 30 minutes” and “sleep timer 30 minutes” but no luck so far.

Any advice would be appreciated because I’m clearly stuck in some sort of sleep timer Groundhog Day.
