The second new channel, Sky Nature, is dedicated to exploring the beauty and wonder of the natural world. In addition to family favourites from David Attenborough, exciting new documentaries Wild Animal Babies; Gangs of Lemur Island; Africa’s Underwater Wonder and many others will all be available to watch.

David Bouchier, Chief Digital Entertainment Officer at Virgin Media, said:

“We are delighted to be adding these two new powerful Sky channels for our premium TV customers.  With some of the best factual and nature programming on the planet, these channels offer diverting stories and an escape into the natural world at this difficult time.”
