SawSaw has launched

[Bob The Skutter]

SeeSaw originally started out as Project Kangeroo, a joint venture between the main UK TV networks to have a one stop site for online VOD, the competition laws forced them to sell it off, but it was picked up by Arqiva and turned in to SeeSaw which launched today.

They currently have around 3000 hours of content from the BBC, Channel 4, Five, and various independent production companies. It's funded by advertisements and they're supposed to announce content deals with US producers and a subscription service in the near future too.

I'd guess this is a UK only service similar to Hulu being a US only service but feel free to try. www.seesaw.com.

There's some more information here.

Cool website - clean layout, easy to navigate, good quality video. Bookmarked.

Yeah, it's nice to have a decent site which has content from most of the major players in the UK. Hope something good comes along with this subscription service they're talking about, but I doubt I'll ever get one that'll allow us to watch US shows the day after they air there... but I can dream.

Looks like a good site.
I am still having trouble with the 4OD site so maybe this will be something else i can use for CH4 shows.

I wonder when Hulu is launching, apparently ITV is signing with them, I don't know why they wouldn't sign with a British service but will with a US one.

They can all be accessed from the main Doctor Who page.

I like that they have classic Dr Who episodes.
SeeSaw is good.
