What’s new in your January channel guide
From Wednesday 31 December, MTV is closing five of its music channels in the UK, meaning MTV Music, MTV Live HD, Club MTV, MTV 90s and MTV 80s are leaving the service. Please note, MTV HD (CH 134) is not affected by the closures, so you’ll still be able to catch your favourite reality shows like Geordie Shore and Naked Dating UK (depending on your TV package).
Also on Wednesday 31 December, kids channel POP and shopping channel High Street TV HD will also stop broadcasting, so you will not be able to access these channels after this date.
From Tuesday 11 November, customers with our Stream box can watch Inside Outside (CH 231), your new themed streaming channel dedicated to food, homes and gardens at no extra cost. It replaces Great British Menu.
On Friday 3 October, Gems TV turned into Gemporia (CH 755). But don't worry, Gemporia will continue shine just as brightly and bring you all the same great shows and products you love.
