ITVX, the commercial broadcaster’s revamped streaming service, has launched on Sky Q.
It had been present on the Sky Glass integrated TV and Sky Stream box for a number of weeks.
Previously, Sky Q customers, which represent the majority of the UK’s installed base had access to a slimmed-down version of ITVX and before it ITV Hub, labelled ITV Catch up.
ITVX features both new and classic drama, often premiering new titles on ITV before linear transmission. This includes the six-part cold war drama A Spy Among Friends starring Damian Lewis and Guy Pearce and the Australian legal thriller The Twelve.
Umm, what exactly IS ITVX? What does it do that ITV (or other channels) do not?
Its a new ITV streaming channel. It appears amongst the apps, if you have SkyQ. Or you can stream online. It includes some programmes not previously shown on ITV.
Apart from the occasional football match, Snooker & the News, can't think of a single programme I've watched on ITV in years so I think I'll pass on ITVX.

A Year On Planet Earth, Litvinenko? I posted a couple of trailers on the box sets thread.
Malpractice: Release date, cast and news for ITV medical thriller The new medical thriller tells the story of one doctor caught up in a dangerous conspiracy.
A cast led by Deceit's Niamh Algar, directed by BAFTA-winning Philip Barantini (Boiling Point, The Responder) and written by former NHS doctor Grace Ofori-Attah? Malpractice has all the makings of a truly stellar medical drama.
The brand new thriller is set to land on our screens this spring on ITV and the five-parter comes from World Productions – AKA the team behind Line of Duty, Vigil, and Anne – so we just know it'll provide some on-the-edge-of-your-seat viewing.

Had my first ITVX experience last night, as I wanted to watch Raol Maout.
The 1st episode was very good. Presumably the other episodes will follow weekly?
I did NOT like having to sign up though. e-mail addy, Password, blood type et etc.
And then, during the Show, ADVERT BREAKS. WTF? They were not even proper adverts.
This show is sponsored by Ford Focus. Quality.
10 second blank screen.

So I guess if we want no ads, we have to subscribe to ITVX Premium. No thanks.
And there's no "time bar" at the top, when you Pause, or want to see how long left.
When Lineker has sorted out the BBC, he needs to get himself across to ITVX & sort them out too.
Its obviously an old man thing.
One of the advantages of ITVX seems to be that all episodes are available straight away, as I have posted a couple of times above. So the 3 Raoul Moat episodes are available now. You only have to log in once. Couldnt comment on the properness of the ads. You are correct in saying that to view ad free, you would have to subscribe, but it seems that subscribing would give you access to additional content. The 10 second blank screen obviously doesnt take account of your business, you should probably email them. The time bar is at the bottom of the screen, which I believe it is with most channels.
One of the most staggering things about this programme is the number of people that thought of him as some sort of hero. Incredible.
