Sky divides the UK up into regions (and there is an additional region covering Ireland). The tables below show which region of BBC One HD, BBC Two HD, ITV1/STV/UTV (HD/+1), which advertising region of Channel 4 (HD/+1) and which version of local tv (where available) is shown in each Sky region. The tables exclude regional channels in the 951-980 range.

The timeshift channels in the 200s, the SD channels in the 800s and local channels are not available on Sky Glass or Sky Stream.
