From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
BBC Four, offered by the British Broadcasting Corporation, is a television channel that is only available to viewers with Sky, Cable television or Freeview boxes. It is the successor to BBC Knowledge, and began broadcasting on 2nd March 2002.
The channel comes across as an audio-visual version of radio, particularly Radios 3 and 4, broadcasting a mixture of art and science-related programmes, archive drama including many rare black and white programmes, and non-English language films.
On weekdays the channel shows a 30 minute global news programme called The World, simulcast with and produced by BBC World.
