ITVBe – a new mainly female-oriented channel from ITV
ITVBe will launch on 8 October 2014
It will be “free to air” and so will be available on both Freesat and Sky.
It will be the new home of the ITV2 semi-reality show The Only Way Is Essex.
ITVBe will launch on Wednesday October 8th, and the launch night will feature Welcome to ITVBe, a one off celebration of everything on the new channel; a special edition of The Only Way is Essex set in Ibiza; and TOWIE: All Back To Essex, a one off special spin-off.
Presenters Peter Andre and Jamelia will present Welcome to ITVBe and bring you all the gossip and glamour from our launch party. The show will feature action from the celebrity bash, interviews on the sofa and an exclusive premiere of Celebrity Dinner Date, featuring Joe Swash.
