Horror comes to Freeview
Monday, 9 March 2015 - Reported by Marcus
The Horror Channel has been showing old Doctor Who episodes since last Easter, but until now the channel has only been available on Sky, Virgin and Freesat. The new deal means that from Friday 13th March it will be available on channel number 70 on Freeview, available to over 90% of the population in 17 million homes.
Tanya Gugenheim, Chief Business Development Officer, AMC Networks International – Zone said:
Horror Channel has become the third channel in the CBS AMC Channel portfolio to launch on Freeview within a year, joining CBS Reality and CBS Action and underscoring the demand for our content offering. The channel already boasts a loyal fan base, and we’re pleased to introduce it to a broader audience through Freeview.
The first story to be shown on Freeview will be the 1978 story The Stones of Blood. A full list of stories can be found on our sister site This Week in Doctor Who.
