If you're a fan of the new Top Gear or BBC’s excellent Planet Earth documentaries, then you’re probably going to flip because BBC Worldwide has struck a deal with Telekom Malaysia Bhd to offer BBC Player to HyppTV subscribers.

Thanks to the deal, consumers will now have access to BBC channels like BBC First, BBC Brit, BBC Earth, BBC Lifestyle, CBeebies and BBC World News.

Apart from Top Gear and Planet Earth I and II, other notable shows available on BBC Player include Doctor Who, The Great British Bake Off and the Graham Norton Show.

However, BBC Player is only accessible to customers who subscribe to HyppTV’s Jumbo Pack.

BBC Player is available to download for iOS and Android smartphones and tablets and can also be watched online at www.bbcplayer.com.
