History
[edit]
The channel launched on 1 October 2008 as Paul Raymond TV, replacing the free-to-air network Playboy One. In contrast to its predecessor, Paul Raymond TV was an encrypted station which broadcast hard core pornographic video, namely those from the Paul Raymond website, paulraymond.com. Encrypted content was broadcast from 10:00pm to 5:30am, with ten-minute free views appearing every top of the hour. The pre-watershed slot aired an adult chat programme and broadcast content from Elite TV during the first watershed hour of 9:00pm.
In August 2009, the channel was renamed Top Shelf TV, with no changes in its programming. On 2 September 2009, Top Shelf TV was added to Virgin Media channel 478, replacing Spice Extreme.[citation needed] On 4 March 2011, the channel was rebranded again as My Ex-Girlfriends.
On 30 November 2017, as part of a re-shuffle of the adult channels on Sky UK, the channel was renamed again, becoming Babes and Brazzers, becoming a UK version of MindGeek's existing brands Babes TV and Brazzers TV.
On 30 September 2020, following the sale of Portland TV's assets to MG Global Entertainment,[1] the channel moved to 903 on the Sky EPG, with all the adult networks becoming part of one bundle on Sky.
