FREEVIEW users will find a new channel on their boxes from today filled with mystery shows and hit movies aimed at sofa detectives.
The channel has been available online for several months now but it is finally launching on traditional terrestrial TV for millions across the UK to access.
Channel available on Freeview number 61[/caption] You may need to rescan your box to receive the channel[/caption]Great! Mystery says it will show “binge-worthy mystery shows and monthly premieres of high-stakes crime movies”.
Among the movies are some big name Hollywood titles from the genre.
This includes Drive with Ryan Gosling, which has won some 30 major awards since being released in 2011.
The Whistleblower with Rachel Weisz is also on the schedule.
And there’s 2006 movie Lucky Number Slevin with a huge cast of big names including Morgan Freeman, Bruce Willis and Josh Hartnett.
A leading movie will be shown on the channel every night at 9pm, as part of a special Crime at Nine slot.
Elsewhere, viewers will be able to catch Dick Van Dyke-led made-for-television mystery films Murder 101, alongside his son Barry Van Dyke.
Great! Mystery joins four other Great! branded channels now available on Freeview.

There is also real-life drama channel Great! Real but this is only available online currently.
Great! Mystery can be found on channel number 61 on Freeview.
Amy Rowcliffe, Director at Everyone TV – which runs Freeview – said: “We’re proud to continue our partnership with Narrative Entertainment UK by launching Great!

By Jamie Harris, Assistant Technology and Science Reporter
If you’re tired of paying out on several streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ then there are a growing number of free alternatives around.
While many of these alternatives have been filled with obscure content, more big names like Sky have got on board in recent years offering some quality stuff, which is largely archive but still entertaining.
As well as UKTV, Sony and Channel 5 are among the other players getting involved.
If you haven’t already, give Pluto TV a go, it’s available on pretty much all devices including Fire TV Sticks.
On there you’ll find channels from MTV, with Catfish and Geordie Shore.
Some of the classics are real gems too – I found myself watching long-forgotten episodes of Sabrina the Teenage Witch the other day.

Rev Richard Coles confesses biggest fear for I’m A Celebrity journey as he arrives as latecomer
REVEREND Richard Coles will be praying he is not made to do a challenge at height in his I’m A Celeb stint.
The former pop star and vicar, 62, is terrified of heights and says he will “absolutely” be calling on his faith to help him through tasks.
Rev Richard Coles has revealed his biggest fear for I’m A Celebrity as he arrives as a latecomer[/caption] The vicar is looking forward to shedding some pounds in the jungle[/caption]He is entering the jungle as a late arrival alongside former Love Island star Maura Higgins, 33, tomorrow night.
Confessing which trials he fears most, Richard said: “Anything up high.
“I actually froze with fear on the stepladder the other day.
“So anything which means walking some horrible, rickety tightrope or something.
“But I know that there will be somebody burly with a harness to keep me from falling.”
Speaking about preparing for jungle life by slimming down, Richard joked: “My run-up to the show was going on a cruise, so I’ve been on a, like, 5,000 calories a day diet.
“So I think I’m already fatter since my measurements the day before yesterday.
“So no, I’ve not done that at all. I tried to, and I thought I should, because I imagine the body will notice going from 5,000 calories a day to 500 calories a day.
“But it’s good, and I will lose a bit of weight.”
Since the show kicked off on Sunday, campmates have already had to endure BBC Radio 1 DJ Melvin Odoom’s loud snoring.
But the former Strictly Come Dancing contestant will have some competition from Richard in that department.
He said: “It’d be me who’s doing the snoring, so it’d be how do they cope with the snoring.
“I’m a bit worried about that actually, because my partner is not a fan of that at all.
“He made me have this thing, it’s like a boxer’s gum shield that you put in to stop snoring. But after a while, you just feel it’s just getting a little bit Frankenstein.”
Asked what a campmate would have to do to get on his nerves, Richard replied: “Sniff. Sniffing.
“I’m not naturally a patient person, but being a vicar taught me to be patient.
“Also I lived in the monastery for two years, so I know what it’s like to be locked in with people you don’t choose to be with. So I’ve got some resilience.”
- I’M A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! airs on ITV1 at 9pm tonight.

Irish star Maura, 33, told The Sun yesterday: “I’m still on Vegas time. I’m not well.
“Sin City has killed me. Honestly, not good. I feel like yer man from The Hangover, like, the shakes and everything.
“It was amazing, just very exhausting. It was like, proper, full on . . . when we landed, just the jet lag, no sleep.
“I have no clue what day it is. I don’t know where I am, I’m so confused.”
She added: “I don’t really drink champagne, I’m more red wine. So that gives you a bad hangover, you know.”
In Vegas, she partied with Loose Women’s Stacey Solomon and watched Adele at her Caesars Palace residency before flying to Oz, where she landed on Monday.
Despite Maura having a blast, some of her fans were not too happy about the trip.
She said: “My DMs were ‘Why are you in Vegas? You should be in Australia. I’ve put a bet on you to win the show!’ ”
She will enter the jungle as a late arrival alongside ex-Strictly star Reverend Richard Coles, 62.
She set tongues wagging in recent months after she was snapped snogging heart-throb Pete.
The ex-Towie hunk, 36, seems to have found himself in a love triangle with Maura and his dance partner Jowita Przystal, 30, who he has grown close to
But asked about dating Pete, Maura insisted: “I’m not, I’m not. Where have you heard that?
“I mean, I date, but I’m very much single.”
When asked if she had been on a date with Pete, she laughed: “I mean, I’ve been on a date with many people.”

She instantly ruffled feathers and caused hundreds of Ofcom complaints after straddling and trying to kiss boxer Tommy Fury when he was partnered up with influencer Molly-Mae Hague.
Fans loved her fiery, forthright personality — and she will be bringing that attitude straight into the I’m a Celeb camp.
Maura said: “I mean, I’m not gonna go in and annihilate anyone.
“But obviously, if someone gets on my nerves, I’m not really one to hold it in. I do speak my mind.
“I think I’ve matured, but I still have the potty mouth.”
She is also joining the queue of campmates desperate to quiz Wayne Rooney’s wife Coleen, 38, over the Wagatha Christie saga.
Maura said: “I want to talk to her about it. I’m a bit nosey like that.”
