ITV has agreed a new content partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery that will bring more than 2,000 hours of TLC and Quest programming to ITVX over the next year.
The agreement will see dedicated TLC and Quest branded collections established on the streaming service, extending the reach of Warner Bros. Discovery’s UK free-to-air channels.
The TLC collection launches with the first series of the revived Mock the Week, hosted by Dara Ó Briain, alongside reality titles Dr. Pimple Popper and The Bad Skin Clinic.
Further programming will be added throughout the year and into 2027, including Zero Stars with Sara Pascoe and Roisin Conaty and Unacceptable, hosted by Ed Gamble. Selected seasons from the UK and US versions of 90 Day Fiancé and Say Yes to the Dress franchises will also be made available.
However, new episodes will continue to premiere on WBD’s own services. The second series of Mock the Week and forthcoming Unacceptable will premiere on TLC, with catch-up on discovery+, before subsequently joining the ITVX collection in 2027.
A dedicated Quest collection will follow later this year, featuring programming from the Salvage Hunters and Shed & Buried franchises, together with Vinnie Jones in the Country and Richard Hammond’s Workshop.
Graham Lafferty, SVP Content Strategy & Networks, UK&I, Warner Bros. Discovery, said the agreement would bring TLC’s “new-look content” to ITVX’s wider audience.
“We’re looking forward to expanding the partnership with Quest programming also coming to ITVX later in the year.”
Craig Morris, Director of Channels, ITVX & Acquisitions, ITV, said the deal would bring WBD programming to ITVX’s 20 million-plus monthly viewers, adding: “I’m delighted we’re able to supplement our own programming with these brilliantly bingeable titles.”
TLC became a free-to-air channel in the UK in January 2026, repositioning as a broader entertainment service combining comedy and scripted programming with WBD’s established reality franchises. It is available on Freeview, Freely, Sky and Virgin Media.
