Sky customers are getting two new channels

Sky is launching two new channels this May with hundreds of hours of original content.

The channels, Sky Documentaries and Sky Nature will head to the box and NowTV on May 27.

Viewers can watch documentaries including McMillions, which looks into the scandal surrounding the McDonald's Monopoly gaming scam, Ali vs Cavett portrays the life of boxing legend Muhammad Ali through the lens of his frequent appearances on the Dick Cavett Show and Hillary which provides a remarkably intimate portrait of public woman Hillary Clinton.

While Sky Nature will be home to original series Wild Animal Babies which follows Patrick Aryee and a cast of baby animal characters as they face their first days, weeks and months on planet earth. Plus it includes Sky’s existing collection from national treasure David Attenborough.

The channels will be available for Sky customers at no extra cost and can be watched live or on the on-demand services.

If you're a non-Sky customer there's still a way to watch the new channels and shows like McMillions. You can sign up to NowTV for a seven-day free trial with the Entertainment Pass and pay £8.99 per month when the trial ends.

Plus Sky History will be launching in May which is a co-branded venture between Sky and A+E Networks previously known as HISTORY.
