To add to the above it will premier for the first time ever the full series of Breaking Bad on DTT. It will also be the first UK channel to show the first viewing of series five of The Walking Dead - ahead of Channel 5.
Just to supplement that information: VIVA will cease transmitting on channel 21; 5 USA will move from channel 31 to 21; Spike will take up the vacated slot on channel 31.
The complete series of Breaking Bad will be available on Demand 5. Each episode will be available after it has been broadcast on Spike for the first time.
We make episodes available on Demand 5 for the maximum number of days we're allowed to provide it. This varies according to our rights agreement and depends on the way you access Demand 5.

It's just gone 7am & I've retuned my BT Youview box but Spike didn't appear! I wanted to set Breaking Bad to record but looks like it won't happen.
Hi guys - Just to let you know, your YouView boxes will pick up Spike automatically, so you won't need to re-tune when it's made available. For more information on when Spike will launch keep an eye on their website (Thanks zulu17).
Information can also be found on their Facebook & Twitter pages.

Ha Roy, you spotted the flaw then? I'm teasing, as you know :-)
No chromecast listed either, but they've probably never heard of it ;-)
There appears to be no Spike app yet, so (if it worked at all) I'd be mirroring or browser casting. And I'm about to do neither. We saw BB on Netflix. 1080p and DD+ 5.1 :-)
The show is right up there as one of our all time favourites, probably a 3 way winner along with The Sopranos, and Peaky Blinders.
There's a theme of illegality there, likely a kick against my previous strictly law abiding life as an insurance chappie.
Even in SD/stereo, BB is a must watch.
Edit: No browser streaming anyway, unless I've missed something.

Spike stuff on demand, if it is anywhere, will be on Demand 5; it does not have its own app.
BB is just brilliant; have you got the companion interactive 'Alchemy' book from the iTunes Store? Like crystal meth, you can have a free taster, though the full experience is chargeable :-)

Mind you, I reckon if you did "nip upstairs" in this gaff you might be gone for some time...

Though that might have something to do with Apple TV having no UK catchup players at all.... :-(
YouView boxes are a good bit niftier than many other tuneable devices at spotting when channels change, aren't they?

I'm a Google Play man. You know this ;-)
So much choice.
But I'll 'fess up. You're right Roy. I'll be first in the queue for one of these:
And I can't see the YouView app EPG being terribly readable on it ;-)
