UKTV's network of pay TV channels to be made available across all Sky TV products
UKTVs portfolio joins Sky On Demand and Sky Go with catch up and online VOD services
Popular British comedy channel, Gold joins Sky's exclusive Now TV service
Sky customers can enjoy premiere content such as Gold's You, Me & Them, Watch's Believe and Alibi's Rizzoli & Isles when and where they want to for the first time
Sky and UKTV have extended their long-term partnership with a new multi-year agreement that will see UKTV's network of award-winning pay TV channels made available across Sky's full range of TV products for the first time.
The new multi-platform agreement further expands UKTV's footprint in the British broadcasting market, which currently sees the network reach over 42 million viewers a month. In addition to the continued availability of popular Pay exclusive channels Gold, Watch, Alibi, Dave HD, Good Food, Eden and Home, UKTV content will be available through catch-up, on demand, on the go, and, where available, in High Definition.
To give Sky customers ultimate control over how, where and when they enjoy UKTV channels, content will be available through Sky On Demand as well as the company's mobile TV service, Sky Go. More than 3.4 million Sky homes have already connected their Sky box to broadband to enjoy the UKs most comprehensive catch-up and on demand service, while 3.3 million Sky homes regularly use Sky Go. UKTV will also provide complete series as box sets - including shows such as Red Dwarf X, The Roux Scholarship 2013 and Primeval - to allow customers to watch entire series on their terms.
The addition of UKTVs channels to On Demand and Sky Go further extends Skys leadership in connected TV and strengthens its position as the UK's leading aggregator of channels across TV, online and on mobile. This agreement also builds on Sky's commitment to keep increasing value for customers by deepening and strengthening its relationships with channel partners such as UKTV.
In addition, UKTV's Gold, the popular British comedy channel that celebrates its 21st birthday this year, will join NOW TV, as one of a selection of high-quality partner channels to sit alongside Sky's own network of channels.
UKTV recently committed to investing a record amount of £110 million on-screen this year, making innovative shows and buying bold and exclusive acquisitions. Upcoming highlights include an exciting new series of award-winning Dynamo: Magician Impossible, JJ Abrams' new supernatural thriller Believe, a darkly comedic take on storytelling in Crackanory, and Tony Jordan's new 10 part drama Legion.
UKTV's free-to-air channels, including Dave, Drama, Really and Yesterday continue to be available to Sky customers.
Rob Webster, Sky's Commercial Group Director, said
We are delighted to have extended our partnership with UKTV so that we can offer our customers even more great ways to enjoy some of their favourite shows. We'll be adding UKTV's content to our Catch Up, On Demand and Sky Go services, which is great news for customers. This takes our partnership with UKTV to the next level and demonstrates the extra value that we can create with our content partners.
Keith Porritt, UKTV's Executive Director Commercial, said
The extension of UKTV's partnership with Sky is a clear indicator of the increasing and enduring popularity of our channels as a trusted destination to watch must-see programmes. We are delighted that Sky customers can now enjoy UKTV's compelling content whenever and wherever they want and that even more homes will be able to enjoy our content through Gold's availability on NOW TV.
