BritBox UK Joins Amazon Prime Video Channels

BritBox UK, which gives subscribers access to the best of British television, will join Prime Video Channels and be available to Prime members in the U.K. with an add-on subscription this spring.

BritBox UK offers subscribers a collection of British box sets, including Broadchurch, Downton Abbey, Vera, Only Fools and Horses and Love Island. It also features original exclusive content, including Spitting Image, which will return for a second season later this year.

Prime Video Channels allows Prime members to add on channel subscriptions through Prime Video for a monthly fee, available individually without the need to sign up to a bundle or contract.

Will Harrison, BritBox UK’s managing director, said: “We are excited to bring the very best British entertainment to an even wider audience through Amazon Prime Video Channels, especially as we launch even more original content in the spring, summer and beyond.”

Julian Monaghan, director of Amazon Prime Video Channels Europe, said: “It’s great that we’re going to be offering U.K. Prime members access to the biggest British box sets with the addition of BritBox on Prime Video Channels. BritBox is a great addition to our selection of entertainment on Prime Video Channels, giving customers even more choice to find the TV series they love.”
