Film4 is a British television channel owned and operated by Channel Four Television Corporation in the UK. It shows mainstream and indie movies. Prior to July 23, 2006, Film4 was operated as a 24-hour pay TV movie channel.
Like most and other digital terrestrial television channels in the UK, Film4 usually signs off at around 3:30/3:50AM and signs on at around 11AM (12NN on its timeshift channel). On some hours during the sign-off period and like some channels in the UK (with the exception of channels from the BBC), it airs infomercials as well.

Sign-on[]
There's no station notice nor national anthem, which is straightforward. However, a sting based on the channel can be seen.
Sign-off[]
Just like the sign-on, there's no station notice nor national anthem. Instead, it goes to this message,
FILM4: RETURNS AT 11AM
FILM4+1: RETURNS AT 12NN
September 2, 2014-present[]
Sign-on[]
There's no station notice nor the national anthem shown. Only the message "WELCOME" is shown.
Sign-off[]
Like the 2006 era, it uses the similar style, except the graphics are heavily changed to match the current branding. A new music created by Kelpe, specifically made for this channel, is added.
