#0 por Movistar Plus+ (read as Cero, Spanish for Zero) was a Spanish subscription-based generalist television channel, launched on 1 February 2016 to replace Canal+. The channel was operated by Telefónica and became available on the digital satellite television and IPTV platform Movistar Plus+.[2] The channel was shut down on 31 July 2023,[1] and replaced with a channel under the name of Movistar Plus+.

History

[edit]

Following Telefónica’s acquisition of the Canal+ satellite platform from Prisa, the Canal+ brand name was replaced as part of the transition to the new Movistar+ platform.

On December 1, 2015, it was announced that the premium channel Canal+ would be discontinued to introduce a new thematic channel called “#0”. On December 30, 2015, Movistar+ announced the new channel would begin broadcasting on February 1, 2016, featuring presenters such as Andreu Buenafuente, Eva Hache, and Raquel Sánchez Silva.

On February 1, 2016, at 8:30 p.m., the channel #0 began broadcasting following a countdown from its predecessor, Canal+, which ceased operations after running from 1990 to 2016.[3]

From 2017 to 2022, it broadcast the Iris Awards gala, the annual ceremony of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, throughout Spain.

On January 19, 2022, Movistar+ rebranded as Movistar Plus+, introducing a new name for its channels and a revised visual identity. [9][4] The channel #0 was subsequently renamed 0 por Movistar Plus+.[5]

In July 2023, it was announced that #0, along with other Movistar Plus+ channels, would cease operations on August 1. [6] On that date, at 05:50, the channel ended its broadcasts. [7] The following morning, it was replaced by the Movistar Plus+ channel, which began test transmissions.

Availability

[edit]

In Spain, the channel was available on Movistar Plus+ (Channel 7) in high definition for fiber and satellite subscribers and in standard definition for ADSL subscribers. It was also accessible as a linear broadcast channel on the video-on-demand platform for Fusión and Movistar Plus+ Lite customers. [8]

In Andorra, it was available on SomTV (Channel 1) in high definition and was also accessible as a linear broadcast channel on the video-on-demand service.
