From later this year, BT Vision customers will be able to catch up on the Channel 4 schedule and watch some of the channel's most popular TV programming through Channel 4's on-demand service, 4oD, which launches on December 6.
 
BT Vision customers will have on-demand access to titles from the Channel 4 archive including 'Shameless', 'Queer As Folk', 'Jamie's School Dinners' and 'Father Ted'. Viewers will be able to catch up on Channel 4 shows from the previous eight days' broadcast schedule using the BT Vision catch-up TV service. 
 
BT will also provide on-demand access to movies from Channel 4's film channel, Film4, via the on-demand service, including Channel 4-funded films 'East is East', 'Room with a View' and 'Secrets and Lies'.
 
Dan Marks, chief executive of BT Vision, said: "We look forward to working with [Channel 4] to bring the best of UK programming to BT's customers in new, innovative ways."

Rod Henwood, new-business director at Channel 4, said: "Channel 4 is the most innovative and distinctive brand in UK television, but in a fully digital world we need to make sure our content is available on multiple platforms so it can be watched whenever, wherever and however our viewers demand."
 
BT Vision has already signed content deals with the likes of DreamWorks, i-concerts, Eagle Rock, BBC Worldwide, Paramount, Warner Music Group, National Geographic Channel, Sony BMG, Viacom and Turner Broadcasting among others.
 
In addition, BT Vision has announced "near-live" broadcast of FA Premier League matches during the 2007 and 2008 seasons.

Last month, NTL Telewest signed a three-year deal with Channel 4 to make the broadcaster's programming available on demand across the cable service.

NTL Telewest subscribers will be able to watch Channel 4 content for up to seven days after it is first broadcast.
