On Oct 20th 2008 we'll have Sky Arts 1, Sky Arts 2 and Sky Arts HD on your EPG. We're doing major background improvements on the website too and will launch the new upgraded version at the same time.
Adrian Zak, our head of planning...
We've interviewed our head of planning HERE about how it all came about & what viewers can expect from the channels and there's a load of articles in the media about it today:
**********************
The Guardian
BBC
Variety
Mad
CNN
Digital Spy
Brand Republic
Broadband TV News

and of course, wikipedia's already bang up-to-date :-)
...and a rather nice comment piece in the Guardian's Comment section mentioning us in relation to arts on TV in general...
"BBC4 used to be the best place for world cinema, but now Sky's Indie channel generally seems the best bet for seeing what the rest of the world looks like. And Sky Arts now often offers the best arts programming of the week, given the off-air channels' increasing timidity over any serious arts coverage. How long before Murdoch finds another niche to slip into and gives us a proper summer season of music? It would be the supreme irony if the old devil ended up with all the best tunes."
