Thanks for this Richard, perfect chance to finally give it a try.

National Geographic’s content will soon be gone, too. Disney reportedly want to close down the 2 linear channels with a view of all content moving to Disney+. As things stand, the latest withdrawal date for Nat Geo content is June 2022.

Oh thank you. Not been able to watch this since they left Astra 19.2° on analogue.

I think they have some content on YouTube too (other than trailers I mean).

NOW update has been pushed through on my Roku... Those blasted adverts have now appeared.

Bit of an annoyance on a paid for service but at least they are currently only 10-15 seconds three times during a 50 minute episode. Intro promos can be up to a minute though

Incidentally I can highly recommend Ray Donovan on Atlantic. I'm late to the party on this but it's a winner for me.

Are they skippable ads, Joedm?
