HDR for select Sky Q content arrived back in May, but support for High Dynamic Range didn't extend to Q's built-in Netflix app.

Well, all that is about to change following today's announcement that Netflix HDR support has started to roll out to Sky Q customers. Those who have the relevant package (Sky Q Experience or HD + Ultra HD add-on), own a compatible Sky Q 2TB box and have a Netflix Premium account can now watch their favourite, compatible Netflix programmes in HDR.

Sky has said it will be releasing more content in HDR, including Sky originals: Patrick Melrose and Code 404 in late October and Sky Nature shows America's Wild Border and A Bee's Diary in November.
