VOD 365 has launched two channels, Planet Knowledge and Sports Channel Network, on the YouView platform.
Planet Knowledge offers free-to-air premium factual documentaries covering history, nature and science, including many in HD.
Sports Channel Network delivers premium HD VoD and soon-to-be live sports programming for free.
The channels will be available through YouView set top boxes, smart TVs, Freesat and smartphones.
The services are also available via channel 265 (Planet Knowledge) and channel 266 (Sports Channel Network) on Freeview and YouView connected TVs.
The announcement follows the launch of VOD 365-owned on-demand kids channel, Ketchup, on YouView in October.
VOD 365 founder and CEO Paul Coster said: “Today’s announcement marks a key moment in our distribution strategy and underlines our ability to offer a wide selection of opportunities to our brand advertising partners as we continue to extend our digital reach to UK audiences, who will be able to access these exciting channels via both the on-demand EPG channel listings and app.”
