BRITS will find a brand new channel hidden on a little-known free TV service from today.
Samsung TVs have a whole host of extra channels available at no extra cost – and there’s no need to sign up either.

The channels are beamed onto living room screens via the internet and already includes some big names.
Among them are two Sky Sports channels too.
Sky Sports Stories showcases sport documentaries, with titles such as EFL Rivalries and Her Huddle.
Meanwhile, Sky Sports Classics is the home of football archives, broadcasting content like Premier League Icons and Premier League Legends.
There are a number of channels dedicated to specific shows too.
So, fans of the Graham Norton Show can catch back-to-back episodes.
And there are others focused on Homes Under The Hammer, Eggheads, Mr Bean, Come Dine With Me, Catfish and more.
In the latest addition to Samsung TV Plus, viewers can now watch Great! Mystery.
The channel specialises in binge-worthy mystery shows and airs monthly premieres of high-stakes crime movies too.
Watchers will find US series such as Lost Letter Mysteries, Emma Fielding Mysteries and Fixer Upper Mysteries on Great! Mystery.
And each evening there’s a Crime at Nine special, showing Hollywood movies such as Whistleblower with Rachel Weiz, Drive with Ryan Gosling, and Lucky Number Slevin starring Morgan Freeman, Bruce Willis and Josh Hartnett.
“We are thrilled to bring crime and mystery content to UK audiences on Samsung – for FREE – as the Great! network continues to
expand,” said Jacob Ahlin, Narrative Entertainment’s Digital Director.
“The new launch of Great! mystery aligns with our strategy to grow our channel brands, building on Narrative’s successes and even greater accessibility of our much-loved channels for our viewers.”
Get more quality TV for free
By Jamie Harris, Assistant Technology and Science Reporter
If you’re tired of paying out on several streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ then there are a growing number of free alternatives around.
While many of these alternatives have been filled with obscure content, more big names like Sky have got on board in recent years offering some quality stuff, which is largely archive but still entertaining.
As well as UKTV, Sony and Channel 5 are among the other players getting involved.
If you haven’t already, give Pluto TV a go, it’s available on pretty much all devices including Fire TV Sticks.
On there you’ll find channels from MTV, with Catfish and Geordie Shore.
Some of the classics are real gems too – I found myself watching long-forgotten episodes of Sabrina the Teenage Witch the other day.
