Video-hosting site YouTube has launched a new section showing full-length programmes from a number of content partners.
This follows on from last month's announcement that Channel 4 had signed a deal with YouTube to broadcast full-length programmes.
At launch, the section already includes almost 4,000 full-length shows from more than 60 partners including Channel 4, BBC Worldwide, ITN, FremantleMedia and Al Jazeera.
Programmes such as Peep Show, The Inbetweeners, Jamie At Home, Dead Ringers and He-Man will all be available.
It also has a further 1,000 clips from shows including Wallace and Gromit, The Mighty Boosh, Eastenders, QI and Mr Bean.
UK users will be able to access the programmes by clicking on the Shows tab on the YouTube homepage or going directly to youtube.com/shows.
All the programmes will be free.

Just watching the x-factor Bohemiem Rhapsody video - good quality picture though there is a bit of buffering. I guess that's to be expected at 17.15 on the day of release!
