Yes I think Sky will eventually get a "co-exclusive" deal to bring Disney content back to Sky Entertainment.

This is why Sky is talking about being a "Preferred Partner"
The new sh*t will always be on Disney+
But you might as well have all the re-runs on traditional lineal TV platforms. This way you get broad reach and still get some revenue through the door. The advertising dollars also help.
Seriously, don't under estimate how many peps will pay to watch Lion King 1995 for the 1000x time on TV.
Peps like to sit down on a Saturday afternoon and switch on the Disney channel and see the Lion King (1995) already 20mins in and be happy. Rather then spending 15mins scrolling through a massive library on a streaming platform trying to DECIDED something to watch.
But you can't do that anymore cause Disney pulled the farking channel....

YOU’LL BE BACK! YOU’LL WANT ME!!

absolutely 100% not going to happen.
Disney has intentionally burned all its bridges in that regard and realigned the whole content strategy about maximizing Disney+ subs (and has been richly rewarded by Wall Street for that decision.) Disney went as far as to pay other streamers in the US hundreds of millions of dollars to cancel their rights to Disney content early.
The only avenue for consuming Disney movies outside of Disney+ is either in a cinema, or as outright individual title purchases from digital or physical stores.
(disclosure: I hold DIS)
Edit to add: the closest sky will get to non-sport Disney content is possibly having an opportunity of reselling Disney+ subscriptions as part of a bundle.
