Quest HD launches on Freeview

August 13, 2018 12.18 Europe/London By Robert Briel

Factual entertainment channel Quest is launching in high definition on Freeview on Tuesday 14th August,.

James Gibbons EVP, General Manager of UK / Ireland, Australia & New Zealand and Head of Commercial Development for EMEA, Discovery said, “We have been investing in our channels and content to ensure we bring the broadest range of shows and sports events to audiences. I am delighted that we are partnering with Freeview to showcase Quest in HD to people across the UK, giving everyone the opportunity to view our popular factual entertainment shows together with the EFL Highlights in HD.”

Guy North, Managing Director, Freeview said, “Quest is an extremely popular channel for a growing number of our viewers, so I’m sure this launch is going to go down well with them. We strive to offer viewers the very best TV viewing experience free from subscription, and this addition to our HD line up certainly does that.”

To receive Quest HD on Freeview viewers will need to be within coverage, have an HD-enabled TV and be watching through Freeview HD or Freeview Play devices. Some viewers may need to retune. Quest HD is also available on Sky, Virgin Media and Freesat. QuestOD can be accessed via the player – www.questod.co.uk, and the Google Play Store and App Store.
