UKTV considers G2 Freeview launch

Sources have indicated to Digital Spy that UKTV is considering replacing UKTV Bright Ideas on digital terrestrial with a revamped version of UKTV G2.

Bright Ideas launched on Freeview back in 2003 before appearing on other digital platforms. It currently airs on channel 19 between 6am and 6pm daily on digital terrestrial TV. It averaged a 0.1% share in June according to BARB.

No timescale for the change is available at present.
