Disney has confirmed that it will soon no longer be possible to watch their linear TV channels via Sky (Sky Broadband<\/a>) or Virgin Media<\/a> after carriage talks failed to produce an agreement. Instead the channels will be moved to the company’s new Disney+ video streaming service from 1st October 2020.<\/p>\n

The internet video streaming service launched across the UK back in March 2020 and has so far managed to attract 54.5 million subscribers worldwide in its first 7 months of operation (starting in the USA). Customers in the UK typically pay \u00a35.99 per month or \u00a359.99 per year (15% saving) for access to the new service.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless Disney+ remains a new platform, with a lot of costs to balance under the hood, and thus many will be surprised by the news that Disney Channel<\/strong>, Disney XD<\/strong> and Disney Junior<\/strong> will all be leaving both Sky and Virgin Media<\/a>’s UK platforms so soon after its launch. You can of course still access the content via the Disney+ app or website, but obviously that’s an extra cost if you were previously receiving it via an existing package.<\/p>\n

In a statement Disney said: “From 1 October,\u202fDisney+ will become the exclusive home for content from Disney Channel, DisneyXD and Disney Junior in the UK … The Walt Disney Company remains committed to our kids channels business and continues to execute distribution agreements for Disney channels in many markets where Disney+ is also available, with the goal of giving our fans multiple entry points to our storytelling<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

A Spokesperson for Sky said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We have over 5,000 episodes of on demand content alongside our brilliant linear channels, from our partners Viacom and Turner, and we\u2019re investing more in our own Sky Kids Originals too, like Moominvalley and Morph. Kids can watch favourites like Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol, SpongeBob Squarepants and the Amazing World of Gumball, all the wonderful LEGO content and much, much more. And it is all available in one place \u2013 together with the best apps, like Disney+ and Netflix \u2013 on Sky Q.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A Virgin Media<\/a> Spokesperson said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Virgin Media will continue to give its customers thousands of hours of fantastic kids programming, such as Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol, across a range of channels and apps as well as on demand and on the move.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
