TV International Brings Global Entertainment to Your Door

For anyone living in the UK it may come as a surprise that TV International, which is known in some quarters to be a thinly disguised satellite television operation, is actually a joint venture of Sony and Broadband. The international launch of the channel on Friday night marked its launch with an exclusive launch show in cinemas across the UK. It is one of the biggest launches in recent years for a British channel and is being seen as a major boost for digital TV and broadband Internet in the UK. TV International, which will launch exclusively in Europe later this year, will provide a direct feed of world TV news and factual coverage from every corner of the globe. It will also feature interviews from leading figures and current affairs from the major news outlets including CNN, CCTV, Al Jazeera, Sky and the BBC.

The international launch was designed to promote the growth of digital television in the UK and set a benchmark for other European countries such as Portugal, Spain, Norway and Sweden to follow suit. The move by TV International, which already has an array of channels spread over five continents, gives the UK an all-embracing television service stretching over multiple timeslabs. For the first time ever, a British channel will launch at no cost to the customer, something which is bound to cause an influx of new customers to either sign up to the new TV International pay-per-view package or simply purchase the new TV add-on channels. With the advent of pay-per-view you get to choose exactly when you want to watch your favorite British shows, but with the addition of the international expansion, TV International will have expanded its range of programming to cater for viewers in other countries.

In the last year the company had signed deals with Pay-Per-View in Scandinavia, Germany, Australia and the United States to provide pay-per-view access to its global audience. While the international programming packages are yet to be finalised, you can take a look at the exciting new channel which just launched on Friday night as the first step towards expanding your viewing horizons beyond the English soil, as well as the chance to find out what your favorite British actor is doing these days. With a mix of funny, romantic and educational shows, the network’s latest offering,” Pets”, promises to go down a treat with its combination of well-known celebrities and the kids who adorn their platforms. If you’ve been missing out on the big international TV events, you can take advantage of the latest development in the international TV industry with the introduction of TV International.
