BT Vision adds National Geographic channels

BT Vision has added the National Geographic Channel and Nat Geo Wild channels to its TV line-up.

The National Geographic Channel and Nat Geo Wild channels feature shows including: Air Crash Investigation, Seconds from Disaster, Bloody Tales from the Tower and The Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan.

BT Vision customers can already watch content from National Geographic on demand. Catch up content will also become available when the channels launch later this year.

Marc Watson, chief executive of BT Vision, said: "We are delighted to have signed a linear deal with an incredible brand like National Geographic Channel for these two channels. We already offer some NGC shows on demand and are delighted that our customers will soon be able to enjoy shows live on BT Vision."

Jason Thorp, EVP Content Europe & MD UK Africa Fox International Channels UK, added: "Having both National Geographic Channel and Nat Geo Wild available in a linear capacity will enable BT to benefit from our series launches, events and big marketing pushes which will deliver a greater volume of viewers to on demand content and the wider BT Vision service."
