Background

The channel began broadcasting in 2011 on-screen as simply Fox as replacement for Fox Series. The channel continues to broadcast from cable and satellite.

On 4 November 2015, the channel started to broadcast exclusively in HD and became encrypted due to its move to satellite television provider beIN.[2]
