List of British television channels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of TV services available on digital terrestrial, satellite, internet streaming and cable systems. Some channels have a "timeshift" service, i.e. the same programming (and usually advertisements as well) broadcast one or two hours later to give viewers another chance to catch a favourite programme. These channels are shown underneath the original channel number.
