S4C launches on YouView

Welsh-language channel S4C is now available on the UK’s YouView connected TV platform.

The service allows customers across the UK to watch S4C programmes on demand for up to 35 days following the original broadcast.

YouView customers in Wales can already watch S4C programmes through the live service.

S4C CEO Ian Jones said, “Launching S4C on the YouView platform is a significant step which will place S4C shoulder to shoulder with the UK’s other main channels. Our aim is to expand the methods of watching S4C making it easier than ever for people to watch our excellent programming. We know that viewing habits have changed and are continuing to evolve, and the challenge for us is to respond and remain at the forefront of these changes, by listening to our viewers.”
