CCXTV was a British free-to-air television channel launched on 15 April 2020[1] by Ideal World as an entertainment channel. It took over Create and Craft's Freeview LCN 23, broadcasting from 0700 until 2200, with a schedule of imports and re-runs of shows like The Bold and The Beautiful,[2] Never the Twain and Hot in Cleveland.

The channel was sold to UKTV in October 2020[3] to allow them to move Dave Ja Vu into LCN 23, resulting in CCXTV moving to LCN 73 on 7 December 2020. On 25 January 2021 it was announced that the channel would close on 1 February 2021[4] replaced by Drama +1.[5]
