Yle Teema & Fem is a Finnish free-to-air television channel owned by Finnish state broadcaster Yle. It was launched on 24 April 2017, after Yle Teema and Yle Fem merged to form this channel. [1]

Contents

Teema & Fem is Yle's channel for culture, education, and science. The "Teema" hours focus on recordings of performing arts, classical music, art, and history documentaries, films, and themed programming. The channel also broadcasts Swedish-language news (including the Swedish-language evening bulletin TV-nytt ), factual and children's programmes and entertainment as part of the "Fem" hours. It also shows many Nordic films and series and previously aired the Sami-language Ođđasat until that show got moved to Yle TV1. Finnish and Swedish subtitles are available for programmes which are not originally in those respective languages. Outside prime time, Teema & Fem showed selected programmes acquired from Sveriges Television, Sweden's equivalent of Yle, until May 2017. [2]
