British and Irish television satellite and cable channel
Television channel
Discovery Home & Health
was a British and Irish television satellite and cable channel. It was launched on 1 July 2000 as part of the Discovery Channel's bouquet of channels, as
Discovery Health
, following a similar format to the
American channel of the same name
.
It was rebranded on 7 May 2005 to its current name, and relaunched as a female oriented lifestyle channel. This coincided with the relaunch of Discovery Home & Leisure as
Discovery Real Time
, a male oriented channel.
[1]
In the same month, a timeshift service -
Discovery Home & Health +1
, began test operations on Sky
[2]
and fully launched on the 23rd.
[3]
On 30 April 2013, Discovery Home & Health received a new look, following the closure of Discovery Real Time and Discovery Travel & Living, and began broadcasting in widescreen, the last of Discovery's UK channels to do so. Some programming from the closed channels was transferred over to Home & Health. At the same time the channels also moved into Real Time's old EPG slots on Sky and did so on Virgin Media on 7 May 2013.
[4]
The network was superseded by the streaming platform
Discovery+
, which effectively carries all of its content, and it was discontinued with immediate effect on 6 January 2021, the same fate which befell
Discovery Shed
.
