Channel 4 has revealed its plans for a new 'catch-up' service for viewers.

The service will offer viewers the chance to see Channel 4 programmes online for up to 30 days after broadcasting for 99p per episode.

Current series such as Hollyoaks and Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares will be available alongside archived output from the network's 24 years on air.

The purchased episodes will be kept temporarily in a personalised library and can be accessed an unlimited number of times within a 48 hour period.
