The Business Channel has joined the Sky EPG this morning in preparation for the launch of the station tonight.

Content on the free-to-air channel will include a mix of documentaries, dramas, feature films and reality shows, all of which have business as their primary theme.

The first programme to be aired today at 8pm will be The Murdochs, described as a "rare behind-the-scenes insight to Rupert’s family, background and business practice". Also showing tonight will be the UK premiere of the feature film Purpose, a boardroom drama starring John Light and Mia Farrow. From tomorrow the channel will broadcast daily between 6am and midnight.

Viewers can find The Business Channel in the documentaries section on Sky EPG number 547.
