BBC Three

Replacing BBC Choice, BBC Three is the corporation's youth channel, available via digital platforms including Freeview. Aimed at the 25 to 34-year-old age group, much of its programming is experimental, either in format or in trialling and training new talent. First launched on 9th February 2003, the channel ceased broadcasting on 16th February 2016, with the name becoming a brand of similarly youth-skewed content on BBC iPlayer. It re-launched as a broadcast channel on 1st February 2022.
