BritBox coming to Virgin Media - sort of


BritBox UK is to join Amazon’s Prime Video Channels, as an add on subscription, starting in the spring.

BritBox, which is backed by ITV and the BBC, is already available to BT TV, Freeview and Freesat homes and as Amazon Prime Video Channels are available on Virgin Media (and Sky) it means BritBox will be available on the V6 and 360 boxes too.

BritBox UK will be available to Prime members this spring, for an additional monthly fee, via the Prime Video app.
