A BIG TV boost has quietly rolled out to even more UK households, granting access a library of thousands of free movies and shows.
The Krays, Halloween, Eat Pray Love, Maid in Manhattan, Dodgeball and Cruel Intentions are just a few titles in the vast collection now available.
Peep Show is just one of the British classic TV shows available on Tubi

There are some classic British TV shows too, including Peep Show, Shameless, Being Human and Great British Menu.
And it’s all because Tubi is landing on more screens.
The streaming platform launched in the UK last year, after a successful start in the US.
However, it was only available on devices like Amazon Fire Sticks and mobiles until a few weeks ago when it rolled out to the TiVo OS.
A number of TVs by the likes of Panasonic, Bush and Sharp use the TiVo OS.
Now, it is rolling out to Netgem TVs.
Netgem TV customers can also access Tubi through broadband providers TalkTalk, Community Fibre, Connect Fibre, and BRSK.
“This partnership with Tubi is a major step forward in our strategy to build the biggest offering of inclusive high-quality content on the Netgem TV platform,” Sylvain Thevenot, managing director of Netgem streaming services, said in a statement.
“We’re committed to giving our ISP partners the best entertainment service, and Tubi’s massive library perfectly complements our already extensive content, solidifying Netgem TV’s top spot for value in the UK.”
And don’t worry, the upgrade doesn’t require another subscription.
Tubi is free to watch because it is supplemented by adverts, like your old cable TV, or services like BBC iPlayer, ITVX, or Channel 4.
But unlike cable, and the other British streamers, you don’t need a TV license to stream it.
Want to stream Tubi another way?
If you’re still waiting for Tubi to roll out to your TV, there are other ways to get it on the big screen.
When streaming Tubi on a smartphone, you can use Google Cast or Apple’s AirPlay to beam content to your TV.
As long as your TV and phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, you should be able to use either app.
