Starting September 30, BritBox, the leading British streaming service owned by the BBC, is available on Telia Play. Telia's TV customers can now enjoy a comprehensive selection of award-winning British dramas, comedies, documentaries and exclusive premieres – all in one place.
Telia TV customers can access BritBox through Telia Play's points system, where the streaming service is available for 10 points. Each Telia TV subscription includes a number of points that can be used to choose and switch between leading streaming services and TV channels.
To mark the launch, Telia TV customers will receive 30 days of free access to BritBox from September 30, without requiring TV points during this period.
BritBox is the leading streaming service for British TV, offering a unique collection of carefully curated entertainment. From critically acclaimed dramas and mysteries to comedies, documentaries and lifestyle shows, BritBox invites viewers to step out of the everyday and into a world of exceptional British storytelling.
This fall, BritBox has launched its brand new movie offering. Viewers can look forward to one movie a month, released on the last Friday of the month – just in time for the weekend.
The streaming service also offers several exciting crime series, including Timothy Spall in the new drama Death Valley, which is about a retired actor and a young detective who form an unexpected partnership in the fight against crime in the Welsh countryside. Also perfect for the Halloween mood is A Ghost Story for Christmas – a series of macabre and strange short films from Mark Gatiss. These films are spiced up with star actors such as Swedish MyAnna Buring (Unforgotten), Kit Harington (Game of Thrones), Celia Imrie (The Thursday Murder Club) and Monica Dolan (Mr Bates vs The Post Office).
In December, BritBox is simultaneously marking the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen with Sense & Sensibility and Miss Austen Regrets, joining the timeless favourite Pride & Prejudice.
Telia Norway's agreement with BritBox is part of Telia Company's Nordic partnership with the British streaming service.
