Foxtel prepares for ‘wholesale repositioning’ with new channel and programming
Foxtel has released details about its newest channel as part of a series of announcements which aim to realign the focus of the business.
BBC Earth will launch on October 10 and bring a host of popular streaming titles to the Foxtel network, including Planet Earth II and Blue Planet II which will be available to stream on-demand. Foxtel CEO Patrick Delany said the new addition is part of a much larger plan for the subscription TV business, which will see it transform its positioning and entertainment and lifestyle offerings.
“The October debut of BBC Earth on Foxtel will form part of a larger announcement at the launch event of Foxtel Media, the media sales company formerly known as Multi-Channel Network (MCN), in Sydney, where we will unveil a wholesale repositioning and renewal of Foxtel’s entertainment and Lifestyle channels,” said Delany.
 
	
I wish Foxtel would offer a senior’s package.
FOXTEL is a Seniors package.
I love BBC World, would we have to pay extra for the various channels
Get rid of Marco Miranda! None of the staff in Melbourne and Robina like the guy, he never talks to staff walks around with a huge chip on his shoulder. This guy is dead weight to Foxtel. I dobt know one staff member that likes him. Goes to Robina locks himself in an office very unapproachable executive he is well passed his use by date
Agreed
I wish they would have done this channel in HD instead of just SD….
