Stephen Graves -

Ofcom has granted licenses for two new HD channels from the CBS family.

CBS Action HD and CBS Drama HD have both been approved by Ofcom; the standard-definition CBS Action broadcasts shows including Star Trek and NCIS, while CBS Drama airs the likes of Melrose Place and Medium.

At time of writing, it's unknown whether the new HD channels will be simulcasts of their SD counterparts, or will show their own programming schedule.

CBS Action and CBS Drama are both available free-to-air on the Freesat platform, raising hopes among Freesat viewers that CBS's two new HD channels will launch on Freesat.
