Netflix Signs UK Streaming Deal With the BBC

Netflix has signed a licensing agreement with BBC Worldwide to bring a "broad range" of BBC series to its users in the UK and Ireland, the company has announced.

The deal includes popular BBC series such as "Torchwood," "Spooks," as well as older shows such as "Fawlty Towers" and "Miss Marple."

The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

In October, Netflix announced it would launch its service in the UK and Ireland in early 2012. The company said it would bring unlimited TV shows and movie streaming for a "low" monthly price.
