RTÉ viewers are to be provided with increased catch-up opportunities for their favourite TV programmes. RTÉ is expected to launch an RTÉ2 +1 channel in the near future. “The new, time-shifted RTÉ2 +1 channel will run from 7pm to 2am on weekdays and 12 noon to 2am on weekends, with RTÉ One +1 running 24 hours,” the spokesperson said. RTÉ One +1 would remain a stagger-cast channel and an exact replica of its parent channel. The broadcaster said such channels were now expected by the viewing public, with 104 +1 channels currently available to Irish TV viewers.
