Carlton World was a British digital television channel, launched on 15 November 1998 and closed down on 1 February 2000.
[1] It was carried on ONdigital channel 34, and timeshared with Carlton Kids, broadcasting nightly between 7pm and midnight.
Carlton World broadcast factual and some entertainment programming produced or commissioned by Carlton and its merged companies, including Central Independent Television and Westcountry Television, although it was not unusual for programmes from other ITV network companies to be featured on the channel.
[5] Carlton World, along with Carlton Kids, closed in 2000 due to poor viewership and financial difficulties and this was partly due to the limited uptake of the ONdigital platform where it was exclusively available, and where the channel was replaced with Discovery Kids and Discovery Wings.
Programming from Carlton World was absorbed into ITV plc's Digital Channels.
