UKTV BrightIdeas (previously known as UK BrightIdeas and originally UK HomeStyle) is a digital television channel broadcast in the United Kingdom, part of the UKTV family of channels. The channel broadcasts a variety of programmes, often originally aired on UKTV Style, UKTV Food and UKTV Gardens, and are thus mainly cookery, DIY and gardening. However, in January 2005, it began showing programmes branded by UKTV Sport, presumably to increase potential audience figures by extending the programme to Freeview viewers.
It was launched on 15 January 2003 initially for the Freeview digital terrestrial television platform, but later expanded to other platforms. Along with the rest of the UKTV network, the "UK" prefix was changed to "UKTV" on 8 March 2004 and is thus now known as UKTV Bright Ideas.
The channel is available on digital terrestrial television (Freeview), Sky Digital and Virgin Media.
