Stream The Bear and Other Disney+ Shows for Free in the UK

Disney and ITV have teamed up to offer UK viewers some exciting new streaming options. Shows like The Bear and Andor will now be available for free on ITVX starting July 16. This partnership means that some of ITV’s top-rated shows will move to Disney+, while Disney’s award-winning content, like The Bear and Andor, will become accessible to watch at no cost on ITVX.

The collaboration will bring a variety of shows to each platform. ITVX will feature popular programs like Love Island and The 1% Club, along with acclaimed series such as Mr Bates vs The Post Office. On the other hand, Disney+ will introduce a new “A Taste of ITVX” section featuring shows like The Kardashians and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, in addition to blockbuster hits.

If you’re wondering whether you’ll need a Disney+ subscription to watch these new shows on ITVX, rest assured that they will be available at no cost on any streaming device that supports the app. However, you have the option to upgrade to ITVX Premium for an ad-free experience.

Disney’s president of direct-to-consumer, Joe Earley, expressed excitement about the collaboration, explaining that it will allow Disney+ customers to enjoy popular UK shows while encouraging ITVX viewers to explore Disney’s award-winning series and films. This partnership joins Disney’s existing agreements with other UK broadcasters, providing viewers with a diverse range of content to enjoy.

In addition to current offerings, details are emerging about a reboot of ITV’s classic show Blind Date coming to Disney+ in the future. This collaboration promises an exciting lineup of shows that cater to a wide range of interests and preferences for UK viewers.
