The company, part of the Global Services division of BT, will make a digital archive of ITV content so that it can be made available to viewers to watch at their leisure.

Technology director of ITV Richard Cross commented: "We are excited by the prospect of working together to give new audiences worldwide access to years of ITV's high-quality television."

As part of a five-year deal, BT Wholesale will manage the connectivity between Vodafone base stations, which will use the latest Ethernet technology.
