How do I get the programming guide to display on my roku streaming stick

I have a Roku streaming stick.  When I select the Roku Channel, it does not display the the programme tile.  How do I get the linear programming guide to display on my Roku streaming stick?

I'm going to assume you're in the UK or somewhere other than the US:  "Using Live TV Channel Guide to find live streaming TV listings is only supported in the United States."

The article actually states:

  • Smart Guide is available in the United Kingdom and the United States.
  • You can only access Smart Guide if you are connected to your network and the internet. 

I'm in the UK, connected to my network and the Internet.

@Gary13 

I'm not disputing its availability in the UK. But, I would like to read the article in full to ensure what we're talking about. Got a link? I have questions to try to narrow down, but do provide a link.

Are you talking about a grid guide in the Live TV section, where it shows the current channel and adjacent channels, what's coming up in the next hour, and so on? Or are you talking about something else?

Here's how it works on my Rokus (in the US, could possibly be different in Canada or UK I suppose):

From The Roku Channel home screen, scroll down to the Live TV section.  I have a purple tile there for Live TV Channel Guide.

While viewing a live tv program via The Roku Channel, a press of the left cursor key pops up the guide.

Note that it's referring to a RokuTV, not a streaming stick.
