The UKTV takeover will happen by Summer 2019 - within the next month or so.
BBC is NOT takeover UKTV it BBC Studios (The spin-off of The BBC to sell BBC programme and own BBC Channels out side the UK.)

We may see UKTV moving to new channels numbers when it happen.
We feel Discovery may axe some channels as they will own
