Sky and Netflix have just made everyone's binge-watching lives a little bit easier by becoming the best of friends with a brand new European partnership deal.

After Sky One shared a cryptic post over on Twitter, it's now been confirmed that Sky and Netflix are teaming up to give Sky customers seamless access to Netflix content.

Yep, today (March 1) it was announced that the two telly-turned-tech giants will bring their services together to create a brand new Sky TV subscription pack available to both new and existing Sky customers.

The move will combine content by integrating the Netflix app into Sky Q, where Netflix shows will be promoted equally alongside Sky's own content. So, if you've ever fancied alternating episodes of Black Mirror and Big Little Lies with little to no effort, you're in luck.

The new partnership, which will also give you one less monthly bill to worry about, is all about giving Sky's customers an even broader and better range of content – and more value for money, of course.

In a statement, the Sky Group's chief executive Jeremy Darroch called the move "exciting", and promised to make customers' entertainment experience "even easier and simpler".

By adding Netflix content alongside existing shows from the likes of HBO, Showtime, Fox and Disney, Darroch added that Sky's customers can now access 'the best content' in one platform.

Netflix big boss Reed Hastings said the service was "delighted" to team-up with Sky. "With this innovative new partnership and Netflix's stellar lineup of original content from across the world, Sky's customers will be able to seamlessly access and enjoy all the best entertainment in one place," he said.

Netflix and Sky's European partnership will launch on Sky Q in the UK and Ireland later this year, before hitting Germany, Austria and Italy thereafter.

Now if we could somehow get Game of Thrones on Netflix, that'd be great...
