Quest to move online

Quest, Discovery’s free-to-air factual entertainment channel, is to be streamed online as of this weekend coinciding with the start of the FIA World Rallycross Championship.
Viewers can already watch Quest on Freeview, YouView, Sky and Virgin and will soon be able to watch via QuestTV—a dedicated app for tablets and mobile phone users.

This is a further evolution of our digital presence that allows our audience to watch what, where and when they want,” said Simon Downing, SVP, Head of Quest. “Streaming Quest live online to complement our linear, catch up and on demand services is a milestone in the continued growth of the channel which will pave the way to reach even bigger audiences. The start of what promises to be a thrilling Rallycross season is the perfect occasion to go live online, bringing all the action direct to your devices.”
