BritBox will be available in several C More packages when the service goes live later this month.

The BBC-ITV joint venture will launch on April 28th in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland with thousands of hours of premium British content, including its own original programming.

The debut in the Nordic region will extend BritBox into a total of eight countries following launches in the United States, Canada, Australia, and South Africa, and the UK.

“Adding fresh Originals to our deep range of genres and quality classics is a powerful combination that has just helped us surpass 2.5 million subscribers around the world,” said Reemah Sakaan, BritBox International CEO. “Now, the BritBox team can’t wait to bring some of Britain’s biggest established names and brightest breakthrough stars to millions of new fans in the Nordics.”

Titles include Stonehouse (pictured), the story of the MP who faked his own death, starring Matthew Macfadyen and Keeley Hawes and another disappearance drama The Thief, His Wife, and the Canoe, starring Eddie Marsan; and light-hearted murder mystery series Sister Boniface Mysteries, starring Lorna Watson and Jerry Iwu,

BritBox will be available to stream via the web at BritBox.com, on Android and Apple mobile/tablets, Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV, Samsung Smart TV and LG Smart TV. It will also be available for C More subscribers in Denmark, Finland and Sweden and on TV 2 Play in Norway.
