Under the partnership, Sky customers will shortly have the option to subscribe to Netflix’s Basic Plan on Sky Q.

“This is a great start to what is set to be another strong year for Sky,” said Stephen van Rooyen, Chief Executive Officer, Sky UK and Ireland. “Our customers love Netflix content and our partnership continues to go from strength to strength, we plan to launch new channels and genres, start building our new studio, Sky Studios Elstree, and we’ll have great new and returning Sky originals too.”

The deal is the latest in a series of content partnerships for Sky, with the BBC, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Warner Media all entering into new agreements. Broadband TV News
