Sky Digital TV offers monthly subscription packages with a range of great channels, interactive options and the ability to upgrade or use a Sky+ box to record programmes digitally. Sky TV is available to 98% of UK homes.

You can build a Sky TV channel package to suit your viewing needs. The channels are split into ‘packs’, to allow you to choose the channels that are most suitable.

For instance, if you choose the Kids’ Pack, you’ll receive all the children’s channels including Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network and Discovery Kids. Choosing the Variety Pack will give you all the general entertainment channels like Sky One, Paramount Comedy and UKTV Gold.

For a basic package and the lowest Sky Digital price, you’ll receive a range of basic free-to-air channels (the BBC, ITV and 4 channels, plus CNN and S4C) and two packs of your choice. Choose from:

  • Variety Pack (including Sky One, Paramount Comedy, UKTV Gold)
  • Knowledge Pack (including Discovery, National Geographic, The History Channel)
  • Music Pack (including MTV, VH1, Kerrang)
  • Kids’ Pack (including Nickelodean, Cartoon Network, Discovery Kids)
  • Style and Culture Pack (including Sky Travel, UKTV Bright Ideas, Artsworld)
  • News and Events Pack (including Sky News, Bloomberg, British Eurosport)

You can also add the premium movies and/or sports packs to any package for an extra fee. With these services you can view:

  • Top movies long before they appear on BBC, ITV or Channel 4…
  • Live Premier League football coverage, England Test Cricket…
