Sky and Discovery reach a last-minute deal
Quote:
It's a telly miracle! Sky and Discovery have reached a last-minute deal to save 13 of your favourite channels.
Only hours before TLC, Animal Planet and Eurosport were due to be pulled from the Rupert Murdoch-owned Sky service, both sides went back to the negotiating table to hammer out an 11th-hour agreement.
Sky boss Stephen van Rooyen told Digital Spy and other media: "We are pleased that we will continue to carry the Discovery and Eurosport channels on Sky.
"The deal has been concluded on the right terms after Discovery accepted the proposal we gave them over a week ago. This is a good outcome for all Sky customers."
Just to clarify, this deal means that Discovery Channel, TLC, Eurosport 1 and 2, Animal Planet, Investigation Discovery, Quest, DMAX, Discovery Turbo, Discovery Shed, Discovery Science, Discovery History, and Home & Health will not be leaving Sky's service tomorrow (February 1) as feared.
