BBC Earth FAST Channel Reaches Samsung TV Plus

The BBC Earth FAST channel has launched on Samsung TV Plus in Benelux, France, Germany, Italy and the Nordics.

Programming includes the natural history series Dynasties, available in Benelux; the Alaskan documentary Life Below Zero, available in Italy; BBC Studios Natural History Unit’s Frozen Planet, available in the Nordics; and Dolphins Spy in the Pod, available in France. The channel will feature content tailored to each region.

Kasia Jablonska, director of digital and on-demand at BBC Studios, said, “The launch of BBC Earth is a testament to the strength of the BBC’s brands and global appeal. BBC Studios has seen exponential growth in the FAST space over the past few years, and this is down to the quality of the content catalog. We are so proud to cement our partnership with Samsung TV Plus with yet another incredible collaboration, introducing BBC Earth as a FAST channel in EMEA. We have tailored the content offering in each region, providing a unique experience to everyone. I know audiences of all ages are going to adore this channel. I can’t wait for them to stream it!”

Jennifer Batty, director of content partnerships for Samsung TV Plus and The Art Store, commented, “BBC nature shows and documentaries have a magnetic power that regularly brings audiences together around the TV. In recent years, Sir David Attenborough’s journeys around the world have attracted millions of global viewers and now, many Samsung TV Plus audiences can enjoy the interesting and adventurous content whenever they want. It reflects our passion at Samsung TV Plus to supercharge our service with some of the best broadcaster content—expanding the opportunity for audiences to enjoy the nation’s most premium programs in more ways.”
