Showcase TV was replaced with True Entertainment. The rebranding was scheduled for July 1, 2009, but was later put "on hold until further notice". The change eventually took place a month later, on August 3, 2009. From that date, simulcasting of content from other CSC channels ceased, and True Entertainment launched its own schedule.
Sony Channel[]
2019–2021[]
In July 2019, Sony announced the relaunch of Sony Channel in United Kingdom as part of a major renaming of Sony's UK channels, dropping the "True" brand simultaneously as sister channel True Movies renamed to Sony Movies Christmas/Classic the same day.[1].

After SPT UK Networks sold all its free-to-air channels to Narrative Capital, the four Sony-branded free-to-air channels in the UK adopted the GREAT! branding on May 25, 2021. As a result, Sony Channel was rebranded to GREAT! tv.
This also prevents confusion with the UK feeds of Sony Pictures Networks India’s Hindi-language channels, such as Sony Entertainment Television, which are popular among the UK’s Indian and Asian community.
