BT Sport - Launch of BT Sport Ultimate

I think they stopped doing that since the WWE Network Began.

It was assigned Sky channel 494 two hours after BT made the announcement.

BT Sport's big studio in use for Fed Cup coverage this weekend.



Sam Smith and Jo Durie presenting, Chris Bradnam and Naomi Cavaday on commentary, same team as this time last year but they used a smaller studio.

Hardly. All WWE pay per views are still shown as pay-per-views on Sky and Virgin Media.

That's the same here as in the US, where WWE pay-per-views are still available on pay-per-view despite being on the WWE Network as well.

BT's gallery during the Fed Cup coverage this morning.

For the final day of the National League season tomorrow, BT Sport will have cameras at all the games. I've heard talk of a 12-way box being rolled out during the coverage of the Barrow game, though don't expect 4K from the rest

Now we have a major headache, with Liverpool in the UEFA CL final the pressures on BT Sport will be enormous to sub licence the match. There will be trouble ahead.

Won’t happen.

ITV have the final of Alien Fun Capsule that night anyway.

How are BT planning to show the final for non-subscribers? Only online?

Probably. With the Showcase channel effectively shut down, it'll just be livestreamed on YouTube for free.

I think it'll probably be FTV on Sky and Virgin, as some events occasionally were in the past before Showcase launched.

By the way, if any pres sites need to get any of the current look in their archives, the next week would be a good time to get capturing.
