About the brand ❤️
HGTV (UK & Ireland) was a British lifestyle television channel focused on home, interior, garden, and renovation programming tailored to audiences in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. It began broadcasting in 1997 as UK Style and evolved through brand iterations before adopting the globally recognized HGTV identity in 2020, aligning with the well-known Home & Garden Television concept. Owned by Warner Bros. Discovery EMEA after previous ownership by UKTV and then Discovery Inc., the channel showcased inspirational design, DIY projects, property-makeover shows, and garden features, appealing to fans of domestic lifestyle content. Over nearly three decades on air, HGTV became part of the region’s television landscape, delivering programmes that combined practical advice with aspirational entertainment. In January 2026, the channel was closed and its most popular shows moved to other Discovery-owned channels as part of a broader network reshuffle in UK and Irish broadcast services.
