BBC UKTV

BBC UKTV is a subscription television channel in Australia and New Zealand, screening British entertainment programming, sourced mainly from the archives of the BBC, RTL Group (mainly Talkback Thames material) and ITV plc. The company was originally a joint venture with Foxtel (60% ownership), the RTL Group (20% ownership) and BBC Worldwide (20% ownership). It is now owned solely by BBC Worldwide.
==History==

The channel was first launched in Australia in August 1996, becoming available on Austar in April 1999 and on Optus in December 2002. A New Zealand version with different programming launched on Sky TV, in November 2003.
It shows a mix of repeats of old UK shows previously screened in Australia or New Zealand and new episodes of programs not shown before in Australia or New Zealand. Repeated series include ''Doctor Who'', ''Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'', ''Are You Being Served?'', ''Dad's Army'', ''Torchwood'', ''Torchwood Declassified'', ''The Jewel in the Crown'', ''Never the Twain'', ''The Sweeney'', and ''The Bill'' that have already been seen on free-to-air terrestrial television in Australia. New series include ''Shameless'', new episodes of popular soap operas ''Coronation Street'' and ''EastEnders'' and the original UK version of ''The Weakest Link'' which have not otherwise been screened in Australia. UK soap opera ''Family Affairs'', which has never been screened on free-to-air Australian television, ran on UKTV from 1998 to 2007. In July 2006 UKTV began screening 2006 episodes of UK soap opera ''Emmerdale'' which had never before been screened in Australia.
UKTV's episodes of ''EastEnders'' are now two weeks behind the United Kingdom, and ''Coronation Street'' is around four weeks behind. ''Hollyoaks'' is sixteen weeks behind the UK episodes. However, by comparison ''Emmerdale'' is more than twenty months behind the original UK broadcasts.
In addition to British programming UKTV has repeated Australian soap operas ''Sons and Daughters'' and ''Prisoner'' which were both produced by the Reg Grundy Organisation (now owned by RTL). In both cases the entire series was shown; the ''Sons and Daughters'' repeat run was from 1997 until 2000 and ''Prisoner'' ran from 1997 until October 2004, ''Prisoner'' is now screening on 111 Hits from March 2011. It also screened the TVNZ soap opera ''Shortland Street'' for several years in the 1990s, after early episodes of that series had briefly been screened by SBS on free-to-air television in Australia.
In Australia, UKTV, like all pay TV drama channels, is legally required to spend 10 per cent of their total program expenditure on funding new eligible (Australian and New Zealand) drama programs (). Such productions include ''Changi'', ''Supernova'', ''Make or Break'' and ''False Witness''.
UKTV has separate services in Australia and New Zealand, partly to reflect different local tastes, but also for rights reasons, as many programmes are shown on free-to-air channels in New Zealand. For example, ''Coronation Street'' has been shown on TV One for many years, while until May 2009, ''EastEnders'' was shown on Prime, before moving to UKTV.
On 3 October 2009 UKTV revealed a new logo, displaying that of the BBC, although its name never been change.〔(UKTV Announces Logo Change ) – Twitter, ''3 October 2009''〕 On 15 November 2009 the channel launched an HD simulcast, replacing BBC HD.
In April 2013, the channel changed its logo and name to BBC UKTV.
On 1 July 2014, the HD simulcast closed, making the channel solely available in standard definition. This comes prior to the launch of BBC First, which will use the HD feed which was used by BBC UKTV. In addition, BBC UKTV changed subscription packages on Foxtel - moving from the Drama & Lifestyle add-on package to the basic Essential package increasing its reach.
On 1 February 2015, BBC UKTV launched on Australian IPTV service Fetch TV.
