Viewers can also expect the full range of ITV drama past and present to go on the service, as well as documentaries, cult classics and hundreds of blockbuster films which will all stream for free. All of ITV’s channels will be available to live stream through ITVX, as well as additional themed channels (known as FAST channels), and a dedicated news section.

ITV’s Chief Executive, Carolyn McCall said: “We’re really excited to launch ITVX, with more content available than ever before, and a whole range of exclusive commissions. ITVX is powered by a significant, streaming-first commissioning budget, and an integrated technology and data platform providing high quality, and more personalised viewing and advertising experience, that will continue to evolve in 2023 and beyond.”

In addition to a host of new series’ premiering and streaming exclusively on ITVX, viewers will also have access to watch full series of ITV’s flagship shows on their first day broadcast. There will also be more than 250 feature films available on launch day, with a thousand films to be made available to stream each year.
