The operator announced that the channel is now available to Swisscom TV subscribers in a German language version on the Top Deutsch+ package and as a French language version on the Top Français+ package.

Marking the launch of the channel on Swisscom, Eurochannel will offer a selection of more than 80 exclusive European films and TV series such as British cult TV series The Avengers and new medical drama Lifeline.
