Film4 2017 and 2018

Film4 started off life as the British film production arm of Channel 4, eventually leading to the launch of a channel in 1998 as FilmFour, and marking Channel 4's first foray into the multi-channel world. Initially starting as a subscription channel, it was slightly rebranded as Film4 in July 2006 when it moved to free-to-air status instead. The current presentation package for the channel was introduced in 2014.
