Sky is bringing back the Sky One brand on channel 106 from Tuesday 24th February, consolidating its comedy and entertainment programming under the revived brand.
The channel will replace Sky Showcase and Sky Max, bringing Sky’s original entertainment content together in a single location.
Programming will include new shows The Dyers’ Caravan Park and Gemma Collins: Four Weddings and a Baby, alongside existing series Rob and Romesh Vs., The Paper and Ted.
Sky One will also become the home of Saturday Night Live UK when it launches later this year.
According to Carli Kerr, MD of Sky TV & NOW, the change aims to simplify navigation for viewers seeking Sky’s entertainment output.
Sky One joins the broadcaster’s existing channel lineup, which includes Sky Atlantic, Sky Comedy, Sky Witness, Sky Crime, Sky Nature and Sky Documentaries.
