BBC Earth will be launched as a linear channel in Slovakia and the Czech Republic on November 15.
It will initially be shown exclusively on Slovak Telekom in the former and T-Mobile in the latter country.
Commenting on the development, Salim Mukaddam, general manager & VP, Central & Eastern Europe, BBC Studios said: “We’re delighted to partner with the Slovak Telecom Group and T Mobile CZ for BBC Earth. Through this agreement, our premium factual content will be available to significant new audiences in the region. BBC Earth has extended its footprint across the CEE region considerably over the past 12 months as platform operators recognise the unique, high quality content on offer and the growing audience appetite for programming that can inform, entertain and inspire.”
