Kanal 4


Kanal 4 is a Danish subscription television channel operated by SBS Discovery Media, a subsidiary of Discovery Communications. It was launched in 2006 as the successor of the former TvDanmark/TvDanmark 2, which was originally launched in 1997 as Denmark's second nationwide commercial terrestrial channel after TV 2.
The station is broadcast to Denmark by satellite from London, showing mainly films, US and drama shows, therefore allowing for more lenient advertising rules as compared to broadcasting directly from Denmark.
