Sky has confirmed details of a new carriage agreement with Discovery Networks in the UK and Ireland, Germany and Austria.
The deal prevents a repeat of the perilous situation in 2017 which threatened to see all of Discovery's channels, including Eurosport, dropped by Sky as they struggled to agree new terms.
As well as ensuring continued carriage of the network's full bouquet of channels, the agreement means that for the first time Ultra HD streams of Eurosport, as well as pop-up bonus channels, will be made available during next summer's Olympic Games.
"We're pleased to have reached a new agreement with Discovery," said Sky CEO Stephen van Rooyen. "Our customers across the UK, Ireland, Germany and Austria can continue to enjoy their content, including their world-class factual programming.
"Discovery can take you from the depths of the ocean out to deepest space, all from the comfort of your living room. We bring together the best content from partners like Discovery, HBO and Showtime, add it to the best live sport in Europe, our award-winning Sky Originals and apps we love like Netflix, and put it all in one place on the world's best platform, Sky Q."
Discovery's offering in the UK also includes Animal Planet, HGTV, DMAX, TLC and Food Network.
