I needed to 'allow all cookies' to watch BT Sport so set this in the 'privacy' menu. I would prefer the default to be 'only from sites I visit' but I can't get a menu back for cookies that allows me to do this. Any suggestions?

Hi   !
Must admit that that option is playing a bit of   'hide and seek'  :
3-bar menu > Options > Privacy > History   .........   click on the little black arrow in the box that says   'remember history',   and a dropdown menu will appear that will give you the opportunity to change your settings.
