Eurostar partners with ITV for on-board dramas
Eurostar passengers will be able to sit back and enjoy old episodes of Cold Feet, Lewis, the Darling Buds of May and other TV favourites as part of a tie-up with ITV Essentials.
From today, travellers can connect to the free on-board wifi and access over 300 hours of classic British drama.
Eurostar plans to regularly renew all content to offer both French and British entertainment.
"Our cutting-edge on-board entertainment system sets a new benchmark for short haul travel, offering customers an extensive range of free games, films and TV shows direct to their device," said Eurostar commercial director Nick Mercer.
A new series of the popular 90s comedy-drama, Cold Feet, is due to be aired later this year.
