propeller - a revolution in television

Broadcast from Yorkshire, propeller is the first digital satellite television channel in Europe to screen 100% new and original programming. You can see us on Channel 195 on SKY.

Since its launch in February 2006, propeller's programming has become widely regarded as among the most creative on the Sky platform showcasing raw, edgy and challenging television. This is also broadcasting with a purpose and the channel is committed to providing a comprehensive resource for education and professional development, creating jobs and opportunities for anyone with the desire to work in the film and television industry.

An initial £5.2million of national and regional investment from Yorkshire Forward, the Learning & Skills Council and the Higher Education Funding Council has secured Phase 1 of the channel's growth to 2009. Further strategic guidance and support from Skillset, the sector skills council for the audio-visual industry in the UK, has seen the channel take the leading role in showcasing the quality work of new and emerging film talent.

Propeller TV, is a not-for-profit organisation that reinvests any income it generates back into schemes that support new talent and is under the scrutiny of the UK Film Council and Skillset in this role.
