UKTV In The Past: 2004-2009

From 8 March 2004, all UKTV channels were rebranded, some with presentation relaunched, to include “UKTV” before the station name. The only service to cease fom this date was UK Horizons – which split into UKTV Documentary and UKTV People.

Between October 2007 and March 2009, there was a staggered rebranding of all “UKTV” channels to one-word station names.
