Last month, we announced that they will be rewarded with an unparalleled UEFA EURO 2020 viewing experience with all 51 matches in 4K UHD on the Ultra Box. Now they can look forward to complimentary access to the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 via the 13 HD channels to cheer on our national athletes as they compete with the world's best to achieve their sporting dreams. What's more, those with the Ultra Box can watch selected Olympic Games events in 4K UHD.
