There is a wide range of new channels, but a few stand out as particularly exciting. Channel 369 will now feature BBC Drama. We don&#8217;t know exactly what will be shown on this channel, as schedules and content can change, but it is described as having a mix of fan-favorite modern stories and period pieces.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">British crime and international mystery series that ran on Acorn TV can now be found on\u00a0Channel 547, Acorn TV Mysteries. You can expect the live channel to broadcast shows like the popular &#8220;Luther&#8221; series starring Idris Elba. The final British channel added to Roku in this update is Channel 730, titled BBC Adventure, which features exploration content from the broadcaster&#8217;s archive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">British TV isn&#8217;t all that Roku customers are getting. Notably, multiple PBS channels were added to Roku in this update. You can now find PBS Nature on Channel 499 to catch nature and wildlife documentaries. And now on Channel 498, PBS Travel Channel, audiences can explore other regions of the world without leaving their couch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read more: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bgr.com\/entertainment\/6-tv-shows-that-are-so-good-i-wish-i-could-wipe-my-memory-and-enjoy-them-again-for-the-first-time\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:6 TV Shows That Are So Good, I Wish I Could Wipe My Memory And Enjoy Them Again For The First Time;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">6 TV Shows That Are So Good, I Wish I Could Wipe My Memory And Enjoy Them Again For The First Time<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Even more channels<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Roku app on a phone next to a controller &#8211; renata colella\/Shutterstock<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Roku now has &#8220;Heartland&#8221; Classic channel on 343 that broadcasts full episodes of the Canadian family drama &#8220;Heartland.&#8221; It might seem odd to have a whole channel dedicated to one show, but with 19 seasons spanning over almost 20 years, there&#8217;s no shortage of content. Another new channel that will broadcast a singular show is the &#8220;Bridezillas&#8221; channel on 732, which features episodes of the reality TV series of the same name that follows brides as they approach their wedding date. Family-friendly content was also added and can be found on GrowthDay Network on Channel 555.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Spanish speakers were not left out with this update. Now you can find the variety channel Teleports Ahora on 931 and a home improvement channel titled Homeful en Espa\u00f1ol on 952. There is also Cucando Los \u00c1ngeles on 989, which celebrates the city&#8217;s culture and community. With this additional content, Roku may be a better choice for Spanish speakers <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/tech.yahoo.com\/home-entertainment\/tvs\/articles\/3-best-roku-tv-stick-131700262.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:compared to the competition;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">compared to the competition<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Enjoyed this article? <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.bgr.com\/newsletter-syndicated\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Sign up to BGR's free newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Sign up to BGR&#8217;s free newsletter<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=bgr.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:add us as a preferred search source;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">add us as a preferred search source<\/a> for the latest in tech and entertainment, plus tips and advice you&#8217;ll actually use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bgr.com\/2032970\/roku-tv-users-new-free-british-channels-pbs-bb\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:original article on BGR;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">original article on BGR<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a huge Roku TV update, 12 new live TV channels were added to the service for free on Roku TV and Roku players via The Roku Channel.
